So day one I just settled for a flight in the Ager valley due to instrument problems. IF the PG shops open tomorrow I might buy another Compeo+ if they have one.
Today however with Gordon and the training groupies arriving we all fly a practice task.
Start Ager Camping 5km start
TP1 Sopeira 35Km
TP2 Benavent 40Km
TP3 Castekk de Mur 20Km
Goal Vilamitjana 8Km
 |
| Take Off at Ager (top of the ZigZag road) and Lake to the west of this huge south facing ridge |
 |
| Climbing out after TP1 at the end of the lake |
 |
| Over the GURP. No really thats its name! Turn point 2 is over the lake and on the far horizon which is another cliff face |
 |
| Crossing the Lake after a long glide with nary a blip on the vario. The red cliffs is an alternative route but having used it once I opted for the front route to the lower hills just behind the Goal field. |
 |
| Far side of the lake and some week lift. Nice view towards Tremp the local town. |
 |
| Approaching Turn point 2 |
 |
| Crosisng another lake towards turnpoint 3. Can you spot the hotel Terradets on the far side of the the lake? |
 |
| Just before turnpoint 3. Sadly not in shot on any of my photos....the glide had been 12 to 1 up untill then and I need 12.4 to make goal. However as soon as I turned to Goal I was getting 22:1 which meant I would be coming in high. Oh Well.... |
 |
| Goal down there somewhere... |
