Grob G-103A G-JAPK of the Cairngorm Gliding Club. There happened to be one narrow thermal on the upslope, but drifting towards the ridge, at which point the flight transitions back to slope soaring. The average rock size on the slopes is larger that it looks, about 4 feet, so you definitely cannot land there without destroying the ship. There was not enough wind to create any wave; that will be for another flight.
