@Reechforthesky The scenery around those parts is stupendous! The rocks you are referring to are the Krn and associated range some 2-3km distant. The peak of the Krn must have been in the cloud, but elsewhere was clear. The greater concern were the couple of other paragliders not too far away, hence this was purely a brief encounter with the whispies before heading east down the valley (to Kobala past Tolmin).
I had my thin fleece jacket and my padded nylon North Face jacket on under that flying suit as well as my heavy balaclava on flying and it was very comfortable (not too warm). I was genuinely not too over-warm, even on the hill, never mind at altitude. It's not like it was exceptionally cold, but it felt uncomfortably chilly to most of us (not just the Cyprus bods) - weird!

It's funny seeing you in:
No.1 cloud (what's that?)
And No.2 a flying suit!
Sad to miss it :(
