Thank you very much for the nice video. It looks like it might be
possible to soar from SLC to Pokatello under the right circumstances.


Tim Taylor has made such a flight several times. Here in a recent OLC track that is close to the flight you describe..

Tim has also flown to Driggs, Idaho and return several times.

One of his flight that I distinctly remember was when Tim left Mackay and flew back home to Logan. He used thermals going across the Snake River Plain and got on the ridge near Pocatello and flew the ridge back to Logan.

Logan is a great place to fly!! (As are Mackay and the King Mountain Glider Park)
