Comment
Today I tried to fly the SE ridge... wind was 165 at 10 mph at the ridge so I figured it should work. Ended up getting down to 1700ft (100ft above crest) at 40mph and chickened out. Initially tried to climb back up to cloudbase (4000ft) but the goal quickly shifted to climbing high enough to make it back to the pattern safely. Everything worked out well and the glider flies like a charm after extensively re-sealing it in the morning and installing a nifty device to keep the wheel from spinning in the air.
