Two Rick arrived Peterson's LZ (Mr Rocky farm ) at 10:45am and found dead calm wind so we decided to drive up to top launch and it turns out an awesome day! It was sunny like California, with butter smooth air that got us elevated like rockets. .....etc. There was 5 hangs and 2 bags who flew; I'm sure everyone was really happy. I flew from 11:20am to 3:00pm. Almost 4 hrs of air time. Topped out 2000ft AGL. If Zac Major here would've been a good XC day to Salem. Anyway, two hangs (myself and other Rick) launched from the top in the morning (with only 6 mph light winds )while others took off from the lower launch around 12:30pm. All benched up getting above top launch. The wind at the Mr Rocky LZ were about 8 mph when I landed.
