CO'26 1.2. (Las Aguilas) > Chicamocha Canyon > San Gil

Sun. Very similar wx to yesterday. We met Edinson on TO at 1000, as he has slept at home. Lots of humidity in the air, so only Michael flew; Kari and me groundhandled a bit.

Afterwards we started the drive through Chicamocha Canyon to San Gil (the place for this night), stopping several times along the way to have a look at the LZ, some possible TO's and just to enjoy the views.

LZ at the bottom of the canyon - can be used till around 1230, then the valley wind becomes too strong!

San Gil by night (after a very disappointing dinner)

Tomorrow, the wx is supposed to be better (we shall see!), so we'll leave early in order to be ready on launch by about 1000...
