Thanks all.
Looks like it's Minden or Warner Springs.
I've been to Minden (got a double Lennie to show for it) but haven't been
to
Warner Springs.
Minden's got a better rental fleet....
No votes for Truckee?

I flew at Warner Springs a couple of winters ago. The thermal soaring was
good even in December. I got a 3.5 hour flight with tops at 10,500 on
December 27th, 2003. They tell me that they get wave, thermal, ridge and
convergence all year long.

Nice winter climate, very good local accommodations. VERY nice people too.
