Soaring from Warner Springs, CA, A beautiful 4:15 flight 100 miles north to Barstow-Dagget airport - a goal of mine as I had not been that far north from Warner Springs before, then south to the Mexican border before returning to Mt. San Jacinto for the final glide home.
I was carrying about 190 lbs of water ballast to help improve my speed. That helped me average 144 kph (90mph) over the 593km (368 mi) trip.

My in-flight narration may be a little hard to hear sometimes as my remote microphone didn't connect. Sorry about that.
