How is this for a rational: rivers too low for paddling, no fresh snow for skiing in the last couple of months and a crappy weather forecast – so lets do the most weather sensitive activity and go flying?!
Guess after the reports of excellent conditions during the week the need for airtime for us weekend warriors was too great, and we did a couple of sled rides before and after rain showers. And I finally succeeded in capturing some more footage with my wing-cam (both the Mino and Vado have intermittent problems with freezing and not recording when left to themselves for longer periods of time).
