Subject: Fly Yaquina recently?

I saw a post here a while back that said Yaquina opens July 13.  I know we
don't have many soarable sites for a high pressure N facing direction.  I
flew many years back with Ancil, Jim and Harry.  This cute girl I know
wants to fly a soarable, quick turnaround site so both children can fly.  
Anyone fly any of those sites recently?
Thanks
John Saltveit

Be careful...the few times I've flown there, the wind was blowing like crazy up high, calm down low. Almost went over the back into the rotor, not fun. Very abrupt gradient...just a few feet of elevation change.

I've been poking around up there.  Today had 9-12mph forecasted and it felt more like 20 on launch.  Birds were out, blue skies, beautiful shit, really.  I'd be game to fly there and check out all the LZ options with someone who has flown there before.  

So, I wanted to issue a 'case (of beer) challenge' to the first person who could spot land, from Yaq south, onto the Japanese dock that washed up on Agate beach,, but it looks like its set to be dismantled this wednesday. So... I guess it should be a 'double case challenge'.

If anyone is down to fly Yaq north or south hit me up.

Cheers,

I can write that but are we talking good beer? Don't want to waste the effort.
