Double-Cascades Crossing: #2 from Washington

Thanks everybody for the interest and nice comments about my recent flight across the Cascades. I viewed the flight today on the IGC re-player myself just to see what it looks like, and yes, that viewer makes things appear crazier than real life. It should come with a warning. Certainly there were a few times I had to bare down and work hard, but in general, it was a pretty easy flight due to the higher than normal cloudbases. I have done a fair amount of flying on both sides of the route and have become pretty familiar with the terrain and drainages. It was not really as courageous as it looked, due to the higher than normal altitudes. I always felt I had a safe glide to a good place to land. No brass body parts required.
