Grouse - November flights

Hello Grouse pilots,

I would like to report that flying this November on the Grouse was just magnificent. I logged over 1/2 hr on Nov. 5th and today just shy of 2 hrs. Fat lift band just in front of the mountain and a few distinct layers of wind on the way to LZ. Once again I worked it back to the top from 300 m over LZ.
Pls note; the field has been empty every time (all the time) are there any games booked for the fall??? If this "global warming" persists maybe we could fly year round????

There is some snow in behind the peak but launch and conditions remain great - just don't forget yr heavy gloves :)

Best regards,

Stefan
