Arosa in March -4: full moon

Medergen

In the afternoon a nice local flight (Hmax > 2900m). But it was COLD! And the thermals not very well established.

Today (21.March) Arosa offered 'full moon skiing', meaning the gondola up to the Weisshorn would operate until 2100 for skiers. Of course I also used this opportunity to attempt a flight. On top of the mountain the view was magnificent.

Unfortunately the wind on top turned catabatic ('Abwind') so I failed 2 launches and finally had to ride down with the gondola  :-((
