5:30AM will come pretty early for me, I normally like to get up about 8, but for a trip to the promised land of slope flying I guess I’ll make the sacrifice. Mirko, Dave and I making the trip in Mirko’s van, packed with about 35 or 40 slope sailplanes! Should be a good time. South Dakota has some really nice places to fly.

Check out slopeflyer.com for updates and pix when I get back on Sunday.
