Tomorrow I'll be heading for Bishop to fly the US Nationals. Conditions look good with lift to over 17k & light winds (for the Owens) so I think it will be a good week.
Jeff Wishnie had a good warm-up flight on Tuesday & flew from Walt's 168K to the North end of the Whites. http://www.xcontest.org/world/en/flights/detail:jwishnie/9.09.2008/18:14
If you would like to have a look at the waypoints used in the Owens so you know where we are flying, you can download a waypoint file that will open in Google Earth, HERE.
Check back for the blow-by-blow.
Tailwinds,
Tim
