Nephi blog?
Yes, attendance at Salida was slim this year and the flying was only
great rather than terrific. Also in attendance were Craig McMillan, a
local pilot, Bella (I can't spell Hungarian names), and Gary Odenhal.
Miguel flew his glider from Moriarty to Salida to start the camp and
both Miguel and I landed out at Alamosa due to our return to Salida
being blocked by storms. We still had a good time. On my last day, my
MH oxygen regulator's batteries gave up while at 17,000' MSL so I made a
45 NM final glide back to Salida.
Many thanks to Steve Bush for providing tows. There were no relights
that I'm aware of.

Is there a day by day blog about the Nephi OLC Camp? Also noticed
congruent OLC flights claimed out of Parowan - - so the overflow headed
to Parowan?
Most of the Parowan flights were from a long-standing motorglider camp,
now over. Marotta called a camp at Salida and hardly anybody showed up.
Although I'm sure Nephi can be a nice place to fly, it seems to draw a
disproportionate share of traffic.
