Take-off description
Takeoff only with wind max 15 deg either side due turbulence from hills to north and south. Small Takeoff Area has been cleared of rocks. Max Two gliders at a time better one at a time. Short takeoff so manage your glider well before committing
Getting there
From the Madaba - Maain Hot Springs road find the dirt road leading to the Rally Track below. Recommenced 4x4 as some ground clearance needed at times.
Weather
West with touch of South West and touch of North West but not much
Comments
Mostly used as training hill top to bottoms. Thermals can get strong and big in the right conditions but best not to use them. Best not to fly above the upper level hills behind takeoff no higher than the road to Main Hot Springs due sensitive areas and houses
