| Comments: | It may have been convergence because it was going up over a wide area. Main problem was staying out of cloud knowing there were 3 other paragliders nearby. Saw Tim Salter going downwind southwards under dark unpromising stuff. I set off to the sunny east along the ridge. Kronospan plume seemed stuck to the ground and no help, so a glide resulted to Weston Rhyn. |
