Soarable conditions from 11:330 till the monitor closed the park at 3:30. With the marine layer breaking up and pulsing over the park it was unstable and very buoyant.

Jeff Parker got things started by climbing out at the west end, followed by yours truly. This soon became a gaggle of 7 pilots working the lift overlooking Los Positas.

It got better later with several pilots climbing to about 500 over launch. A bit rough at times with several 20, 30, & even a 40 % collapse. Nearly everyone was finding the conditions soarable. Too strong for the student pilots to go to the top of the hill though.

This weather pattern could hold up for the rest of the weekend, although The Dunes are looking promising as well.
