Soboba Apr 18th

Arrived at launch at 4:15 to find it blowing straight in at 7-12 mph. I cooled down from the 17 min hike with a cold beverage. I was 2nd to launch at 4:55. I went right and found a thermal and worked it to 500' over the towers in 6 min. Got to 5K and stayed there for an hour working the differant peaks in the area. Pilots were going out over Hemet and San Jacinto and not losing any altitude. J.R. got to 6850 out past the college. I made 6520' msl over the big 'S' on the mountain. Able to practice manuevers and get right back up. Move out front for hands free butter smooth air. Pulled out a cold beverage and flew hands free and really enjoyed that. Everybody had 2 hr flights.
Thanks Darrel and Bob
