Here's our X country down to La Grande OR for the Elcipse.  Hell's Canyon is just there waiting for all you to come fly it!   George and I both know we have to spend more time down there exploring that area.  Really cool stuff!!

    Next great video Tom! As Dave said I like your comments too, because still I learn listening English. It seemed to me like there were quite windy...

    Right on Tom, fantastic video! At the 6 minute mark you tell George you're going to drop down and "stick your toe in" to test the air. I've found that's one of the nicest advantages of the 912 vs the 582. The time it takes me now with the 912 is nothing, and hunting for better air is so much easier!
    Beautiful country, really miss both of you guys and can't wait to fly with you again!

    Leo - you can see that the air was fairly bumpy and it was worse down lower.  I found that as I flew into areas where a side canyon was funneling air in, I'd get hit with some sudden and gusty side winds.  So, I didn't stay down there long.  Flying mid way to the top of the canyons was tolerable.  There's so much more to explore down there - maybe next summer you and Chris would care to join us?
