Note this is an DHT(Distance Handicap Task). You need to set the Pine Coulee and Mt Head cylinder sizes according to the sailplane you choose. Hartell turnpoint is 2km no matter which glider you are flying. This will likely require using an outside flight computer like XCSoar.
All Gliders - Hartell 2km
Pine Coulee and Mt Head
ASW-15 - 6.6km
Libelle - 6.1km
Std Cirrus - 5.6km
ASW-19 - 5.2km
DG101G - 5.2km
Pegase - 4.2km
LS4a - 3.3km
LS3a - 1.9km
ASW20 - 0.5km
Condor Club will score this as an AAT. If you do not turn the proper turnpoint cylinder, your score will be removed.
Also note there are two penalty areas. One over the airport approximating the Calgary TCA and another to the southeast approximating the High River MF. Regularly High River would not be a penalty area but I wanted to experiment with that here.
