Hello glider pilots in Anchorage area...

Is anyone flying sailplanes in or around the Anchorage area? I'm familiar with all the CAP activity here, but any true soaring pilots anywhere around?

Soaring pilots that are actually getting out somewhere in the neighborhood and making it happen is what I meant to say.

Yes there is some soaring outside of CAP.
I was looking for the same information and found there is a group trying to get active. they put up a website- http://www.akmtnsoaring.com/

I second that post! Ed and Pete recently visited us in Prescott Az and we all had a blast! They were great professional CFI-Gs and very interested in supporting gliding and every aspect of it.
