Pulled off the same with the Litespeed.
The local para guys came out to see the tow site we had been talking about. Few of them took some tows & learned to run their winch.
Need I say more?
Really tough day for me the first half. Jorge left like he was on an Atos. I had a low(ish) tow then struggled with broken ratty thermals to Davenport. Getting frustrated I started to push on low then hit a good one. (Guess I suffered enough) Then things took a change and got better.
Around the same time things changed for the worse for Jorge. Caught up with him near Cayuse (NE of Davenport) near the edge. He was low & struggling. I was a bit higher but getting low when I found one. He eventually starting getting up but it puttered out on him around 6000’ leaving him landing near 231 & Little Falls rd.
I was able to push on to Chewelah then to the Parker LZ for a nice no wind landing. Michele had retrieved Jorge & was arriving not long after I landed
It doesn't get much better!
