About This Spot
best site by a mile so far in Azer.
Late in the evening seems to always get a strong but soar-able ESE. Earlier in the day the higher S face is a great launch and offers great XC potential.
First test of South face today and Base was at 3300. Jason set the new Azer XC record, 40kms.
