I have returned from the longest cross country trip in Caro 1, this was my route of flight:

This was it for the season with rain, next scheduled delivery: winter.

I found nice thermals on a flight in Caro, up to 5000 ft above sea level, but a lot less above the mountains, after the cold front blew through.

New snow was deposited on the higher mountains and the air was fresh and clear. After the hot weather, it seems like the seasons are out of sequence, but I don’t mind.

Here are some pictures from another Caro 1 & Scooter trip:

I landed at the Gustine airport in the Central Valley, an old Ag-strip with absolutely nothing going on. But it lies next to a wet-land area, the San Luis National Wildlife Refuge, which I explored for a while. It must have looked this way before the first Europeans invaded the area, while everything else around it now is farmland, plantations and cattle farms.

It is open to the public, except in fall during the water fowl hunting season.

I very much enjoyed having the place to myself that day.
