Arosa in August -1

Finally, after more than 6 weeks without flying, a nice flight in Arosa :-))
And only thanks to my friend PeterW, who helped me to get airborne in these tricky conditions!



We had to descend almost all the way to the 'Carmennapass' to find a spot, where I was able to launch without problems (and with my lack of current 'training').


Arosa Weisshorn; PeterW getting ready in the 'Rööslihang'; I launched behind the building on the left.
Also in the air the conditions were strange: winds from different directions; sink zones in unexpected places, bumpy thermals...


looking SE towards Engadin: Bernina, Palü






So after a little more than an hour I was landing at 'Prätschli', our semi-official LZ.
