Last Sunday after the "Love" party, we still managed to go for a fly. There must have been at least 20-30 paragliders flying. It was the last day of the Mystic cup and a few of the guys had come back from the Worlds in Manilla. John and I got a great thermal just after launch which quickly took me up to where the paragliders were circling. Feeling like I was outnumbered I left to find my own thermal elsewhere.
It was quite inverted but still managed to get to around 2ooom which provided some pretty good views but wasn't exactly confidence inspiring to for a decent X-Country. This is looking towards Mt Beauty with Mystic launch at the bottom of the picture.
I did go for a jaunt down to the end of the valley and back. The burnt out countryside really stood out.
