Our first thermal session of the year. Lots of pilots out. Good to see familiar faces after the winter break. I didn't venture as far as Pete who did an out and return almost to St Bennie. Instead I flew a little triangle over to Harrison River, back to launch where a sweet cumulus cloud had grown and lift was plenty. Next I went across the Fraser, back to the cumulus elevator on launch and then over to Agassiz Mt. Unfortunately no lift to be found there. Increasing headwind on the way back stopped me at the dikes. Two hours air time, up to 1900 meter (1200 m above launch), 16 km triangle and a great flight to start the spring season.
