Take-off description
Launch is quite tight with a steep drop-off. Tree hazard right behind launch.
Rules / airspace
Launch is P3, but air is generally mild enough for a P2 in mornings and evening.
Comments
Produces spectacular thermal-into-glassoff flights most seasons. About 10 miles of dirt road to launch. The road is closed seasonally in winter after first snowfall and at times of high fire danger.
