| Comments: | I'd been playing with 6 buzzards at the southern end of Moel Accre when the SW wind picked up and triggered some stronger thermals. Went with one out over Llanarmon then crosswind to reach sunlit ground and a small booster by the largest of the limestone quarries followed by the sad sound of sink. Landed just by Nercwys Mountain woods. |
