Yesterday, Feb. 13th, at 6:01 am, the pilot of a Boeing 757 west of
Denver
made a PIREP with the following comment, " we went from idle thrust to
FULL
Power to maintain altitude due to Strong Mountain wave".
Still looked strong today.

There have been good flights and happy wave orientations recently at
Boulder. Another Diamond altitude scored Sunday to 29,000' at Mile High
Gliding, several 2 hr X/C crusing flights, a club ship made 32,000' a couple
of weeks ago...
