Peaceful! Chilly too I suspect. The video gave me the impression that you hiked for two hours and then flew back to your car. Is that right? Thanks

I probably could have worded the titles in the video more clearly, the flight itself was two hours.
I wish that was my car I landed at! Would have been nicer. I actually can't remember that day if someone picked me up or I walked back to the car.
All it took was one really high pendulum Jump on a powerkite and I wanted more :D
