XC from Sisters to the Grade doesn't do much for me. Shortly after I moved here Ted Boyse told me about the grade. I asked him if you could fly XC out of there and he replied, "why would you want to?".

I would want to because, as Glenn stated, "it's problematic".

This desire doesn't mean I'll be dropping into the cemetary or the golf course on every flight (hopefully never). I think there are plenty of potential safe LZs for the conditions that I would really committ to going over. In fact it is the challenge of doing so along with the mulitude of LZs along my desired flight path that make it so appealing to me.
