There was a rotor cloud ticking away in the lee of the Dunstans but not much else to mark the wave.
John towed up behind Gary...straight into strong lift. John saw 2500 fpm lift in one spot...
Next up was Wills in JW (with Doug). Same place, same strong lift. Both gliders flew north as far as possible, John just over into the McKenzie where the lift vanished so he returned.
Nick S flew next with Doug, followed by Masato. Both were soaring flights but the wave was disappearing and was being replaced by thickening Mammatus cloud. John tried to fly south but encountered rain below 10000' and snow above.
Phil derigged KJ to take up to Kerry's for some work. Thanks to all who helped.
