Transfer IQQ-Maitencillo

Early wake-up and breakfast for a 0715 transfer to IQQ airport.
Calm flight IQQ-SCL, with nice views of very remote areas and the mountains.

Then a 2 hour drive from SCL to Maitencillo at the Pacific coast; we'll be staying here for the next 4 nights. This is a coastal soaring site, where one normally toplands...

'Hostal Maitencillo' (our hotel), looking to launch: right side of 'trees'

I tried to make a flight, but launched in a moment with very little wind. Also the flight plan has been rather stupid: going left instead of right, where the wind would have produced much more lift. So after a (very) short sledder I had to climb the 363 steps of the stairs back up to the hotel ;-)
