France -3: Orcieres/ St.Jean-Montclar (North-wind)

For the next  2 days N-winds prevailed here, and there are only 2 sites good for this wind direction: Orcieres and St.Vincent-les-Forts (and the TO at St.Jean-Monclar). So on TUE we first did a little sight seeing to Champoleone, a small but wild valley and in the afternoon made a short flight at Orcieres.

WED we drove therefore to St.Vincent, respectively to St.Jean -Montclar, a site below the Dormillouse. But thermals were weak and we had to wait till 1600 in order to have some halfway decent conditions...
