    Good to see a correct size flag and mounting.
    Where did you put the second flag? Is it before you reach the luge turn on STT?
    When I was at the flag on the 11th someone mentioned another flag on a previous hill that I could not see in the dark.

    Very nice job everyone. One of my favorite things about the Luge is the flag at the top. It's very iconic.

    Yes, there is another pole just before the descent to the Luge flag. That is where I raised it. You will see it on your way up STT to the Luge.

    Thanks Gene! The big flag looks so impressive on that hill. Have to 'visit' some time this week.

    Sounds like a great ride!

    I like the fuzzy photo effects, gives it a surreal look.
