Congratulations to Warner Springs and Black Forest for taking over the
lead.

Thanks Mark.

We got blown out at BFSS on Sunday and Monday, and *almost* on
Saturday.

Saturday, 3 of us headed toward Salida in hopes of some "ridge soaring"
on the Sangre de Cristo ridge S of there. Instead, we found wave.
Unfortunately, none of us was smart enough to figure out how to use it
for a fast league speed. But it was fun going from rough 5-10 knot
thermals into sometimes better than 20 knot wave. For a while I was
cruising at 110+ KIAS and varios still indicating better thatn 10 knots
up.

Then I got greedy looking at a little cu S of La Veta pass, and spent
the rest of the flight doing some ridge work on the Wet Mountains and
again Pikes Peak.
