I was unsettled today, I knew it was too windy and I had other commitments. At the same time Rasp was hinting at flyable conditions late afternoon, and it had the Moorfoots ridge written all over it.

Arriving at about 11.30 at Witchie knowe , Barry and I realised there was almost no wind ,so we retired to the van for a chat and coffee. Within half an hour the grass was starting to move , so another quick check at the face showed a light breeze From the south east.

Well what I nice surprise having Tinto to myself, soarable for 2-3 hrs this afternoon.

And the fun begins with a decision to head up onto Jubilee Cairn to see whats happening.I manage to get the quad up that steep face on the third attempt,a bit scary.
