Descrizione del decollo

Please Note: The roads to launch are periodically closed, due to forest fires and landslides. Before traveling to Big Sur for flying, please check with the Los Padres National Forest (805.968.6640) to make sure that the roads to launch are open. They are serious about the road closures, with fines of $5,000-$10,000 and up to six months in jail, and the local residents are on the lookout for violators.

Meteo

The conditions are most reliable from fall through spring. It is usually too foggy to fly at Big Sur during the summer. Conditions for soaring are best between Christmas and Martin Luther King's birthday. You can typically count on having a beautiful, smooth sled ride, but soaring flights can be had on pre- and post-frontal days.

Commenti

Normally a beginner site, beware of wind shear from lower layer of air from the ocean.
