Corrected AOTD for 8/23 Lake Waiau

Featured Replies

Apparently earlier today there was a glitch with the AOTD listing that showed Haena Beach as the cache for 8/23. It has been corrected and now shows Lake Waiau which is the seventh highest lake in the U.S.

 

Here again, don't forget to lean.

Thank you.

Yes, it is high. I also got that one long ago. It was not easy to find, almost gave up.

lots of fun. speeding down the mountain afterwards with an added 30kts tailwind....lots of fun.

I already had that one :-/...

 

My 8 X-Plane10 DVDs arrived!!!!! Whow! No more 10' play only :-) and.... a few hours of install in the next few days await for me ;-) FLIGHT time will get a little bit bellow normal, but only during the initial phase of playing with the new toy ....

Stopped using flightsims for good since early August 2026, after 34 yrs using some really great specimens... If I'm asked to name the preferred one, after all these years, MSFS 2024 is my answer without hesitation.

(No desktop :-// after the last one crashed for good, so no simming, but I keep polling AVSIM - my main ludic activities spot since around 2006...)

I started searching for this aerocache today, when I had accidentally read "7th biggest lake in the US". So I started searching for an extremely large lake I somehow hadn't seen before.

 

After some time of not seeing the lake, I got bored and just started flying towards the observatory. Going in there, I saw a small lake that I ignored. However, flying past it, I got the aerocache notice, so I went to collect it.
