Finally spring conditions arrived! Very gusty when we got to launch so most of us patiently waited. When the gusts finally dropped I had what must be my quickest climb out from WS launch... about 1200m in 6 min. Definitely beats my Grouse Grind time . The rest of the flight was very nice: big clouds, some snow and graupel and lots of lift; good enough for a Fraser Valley Triangle for 4 of us.
