Startplatz-Beschreibung
It is a VERY long glide to the main LZ - you must gain altitude, or you won't make it over some hills out in front. It is extremely difficult to get back to the road from there. So land on the big open BAIL OUT LZ below and in front of launch. Watch how and where locals lay their wings out, and choose which spot seems to suite you best to launch. Launch there can be very dangerous, it is a sheer rock face similar to Tollhouse.

On Memorial Day weekend (end of May) there is often a fly-in. Every year a lot of PG and HG are getting together to fly there. A beautiful Valley by the Sequoia park.
