OK Nick, it's updated.

Looks like I forgot to hit save on the website, but happened to have a copy in an email I sent.

That valley east of the Whites is named Fish Valley and has a couple landing strips as well as lots of nice fields in case I got low. I had been thinking Tonopah, then on to Eureka, but once on the Silver Peak mountains, due north looked a lot better.

I want to hear of your decision to go east off the Whites down that ridge into what appears to me to be oblivian.

I landed at Circle L just south of Dyer Nevada on the east side of the whites, good strip.

Good write up, inspriring!
I hope to get out there some year to fly in the DDD, before I get too old.
I spent the summers of 82 83 84 living in Bishop Hang Gliding mainly off Walts Point above Lone Pine, with my best effort resulting with a landing in Luning NV. Would like to fly the area in my Glider.
Say hello to Karen.

Nice inspiring write up. The challenging start makes the rest of the flight even more enjoyable to read.

Back next year I should plan to join.
