Site has many obstacles and they are growing in size and numbers, but it is still rewarding because it creates variety of conditions good to sharpen all skill levels. Don't expect easy soaring, or even easy soaring conditions. It could be easy soaring at times, but those days are fewer as trees grow bigger.
