Trike Fling to Deadman Road Valley, BC. Oct 9, 2014

This one of the best and the most beautiful flights. The flight took 2 hours to cover 140 km, through extremely beautiful mountain valley. Leaves were in full colors in spectacular scenery. I encountered several very heavy turbulences, but I had fun with them. I explored that region the following week from the road. It is definitively very beautiful area.

    hey jan    congratulations on the flight   , very beautiful  looks like your just north of us here in western montana  . i think your up by kamloops spent some time there when i was younger. looks a bit turbulant glad you were keeping a good alt and distance from thous peaks. looks like you had some options for lz most of the way. flying in these western rockys is a bit more challenging than most realize.when i tell people that i fly in fairly calm air here  its not because i cant fly more turbulance its more that flying these mountains here require it. very diferent than flying turbulance in  more laminar air.another thing we have to watch out for is cloud suck and ridge rotors yes they do scare the pucker factor right out of me.being an x hang glider pilot gave me a very healthy respect for lee side and ridge rotors. anyway looks like you did a great job and i enjoyed your video.
