Pack XC

[Russell Croman]

Did my first XC from Pack today... only 18.4 miles, but fun. Did sort of cross-wind route at first, as my original plan was to land over by Storms for lunch. But finding myself at cloud base over Storms and finding Paul & crew willing to chase (thanks guys!) led me to turn downwind and go for some miles. Landed at Camp Longhorn. Max altitude = 5,200' MSL. Could have probably kept going, but I was hungry and had to p*ss. Gotta work out a solution for that.
