The camp was a lot of fun! Thanks a lot to the Shenandoah Valley club and Larry Stahl for running the operations. It was fun to meet and fly with folks from several clubs in that area!

Best,
Daniel

Dan's right; it was a fun, laid-back atmosphere. If you are familiar with OLC, check Dan's flight trace from the 28th of Feb. He really put himself out there and pulled off an incredible flight utilizing wave, ridge and thermal in one monster 1-26 XC flight North to Cumberland and then some.
Nice flight Dan!

Looks like about 19K MSL altitude reached. What was tow release? High enough for Diamonds?
Great flying! Off to check OLC.
