Take-off description
Take off isn't really developed, but is nice and grassy and some of the branches were trimmed back. Launch is primarily west but you be could be kited and launched NW as well. Short running area and when north some turbulent air can be present off launch. Exact launch location: 39.827322, -123.846016
Getting there
Was able to get out in AWD Audi a4, but truck or AWD suv is best. Road condition isn't great.
Weather
Best is west I imagine, though I've only ever flown it in light NW and it wasn't great (didn't stay up). I imagine this could be a coastal soaring site with the right conditions.
