Glider Flying Utah's Wasatch Mountains

Enjoy an hour of gliding and soaring Utah's spectacular Oquirrh and southern Wasatch Mountains with pilot Bruno Vassel IV (B4) flying an ASW-27B 15 meter high performance sailplane sailplane. This was an October day with very stable air so no thermals, however, the winds were from the west and I was able to fly the lift created from the wind hitting the western-facing mountain ridges. The mountains shown in this video starts with the very south end of the Oquirrh range. The next shot is near the base of Mount Timpanogos where I need to ridge soar back and forth a few times before reaching the peak which is over 12,000 feet high. I then head south past Provo Canyon to Y mountain. I head back up north until I fly in the mountains above the city of Alpine, Utah and finish off flying over Lone Peak sitting above Draper and Sandy Utah. The last scene is landing back at Cedar Valley Airport near Eagle Mountain City Center. This fantastic little private airport is where I call home much of the soaring season and where I keep my glider in a safe hanger in between flying contests. The camera used is a Contour+ HD camera and it does a pretty decent job of capturing the amazing October colors and mountain rocks zooming by the glider at 100 miles per hour. Thanks for watching.
