Default Region 9 Grand Canyon Flights

Can't find these at SSA website. Does anyone have a zip of them?

Thanks,

John

A spectacular end to a week's fine soaring at the Region 9 contest in
Arizona saw over 20 gliders on a 500km task that took them up on the
high country with a final turn close to the south rim of the Grand
Canyon. It was my first trip so close to the canyon and what a
remarkable flight. Also note some of the 100-mile final glides from
17,000+ feet.

Those interested might want to check the flight logs, available on the
SSA web site.
