Canadian HG Nats update
Day 2 (Mon) no task due to high winds.
Day 3 (Tue) task 105 k to Invermere.
A few pilots launched in scratchy conditions. None were getting up above launch. Then there was a radio report from the LZ re 30-50 k winds. Only one more pilot launched after that. I don't think anyone went on task.

Day 4 (Wed)

I'm going to try to add the
I'm going to try to add the scores here but if it doesn't work I'll sent the html file to Mark. The FS scoring software uses KML files instead of IGC but I'll send them anyway. Maybe Mark can use them.
Here are the scores (hopefully)
