Day 7, Task 5
The day was predicted to be good with 4-500fpm lift and cloud base to 3000', it turned out to be almost completely overcast with 50fpm and and base at less than 2000'. I was in the lead by a small margin so all I had to do was cover a couple pilots close enough to catch me. As it was we all took our sled rides and there were minimum points so I won my first comp. I would have rather lost with a 40 mile flight but I took my sledder and ended up in first. The scores were close and it could have changed easily if we flew. Pictures to come when we get home. Tomorrow Ron gets a shot at XC in Maryland then it is hightail it for home.
