April 2009
15 March 2008 - John Hamlett took this superb photo looking north up the Lune Gorge from Whitestones. The start of the month didn't provide many opportunities but this Sunday was the first really good day of the year. As a result Whitestones was a bit busy! The colours are all a bit flat as Winter comes to an end.

March 2009
February has been a cloudy month with lots of grey skies. However, some opportunities were around for some good flights. Pete Rycroft and Dave Horne were out on the 10 February. Dave reports that "Pete Rycroft found a light thermal above Wanthwaite Crags, enough for a quick 360, and is flying high for Feb. Had well over 2 hours in the air but perishingly cold. Enjoyed it so much that I didn't notice the uncontrollable shivering until after landing!" The photo was taken by Dave Horne and is looking south down the Helvellyn ridge.

February 2009
The crisp air and clear skies at the beginning of the month were replaced by generally poor conditions. However, if you could be flexible, you could get a decent day out. On 28 January 2009 Gordie Oliver was speed flying on Raise over very hard snow. Photo by Bruce Corrie.

6 December 2008. The first weekend of December gave us a superb Saturday of sunshine and snow. There wasn't much lift about but this had a major advantage as you didn't have enough time to freeze to death on the way down. Malcolm Grout Was on the top of Clough Head - not the normal take off area which is lower down - with the training school and one of his students launches off the NE face into nil wind conditions.
