About This Spot
Ridge soarable in light west to southwesterlies.
If you take off from the slope make sure your wing is level or you will end up in the trees.
Good site in WSW winds for ridge soaring and learning to XC for new pilots with many places to land. There is potential to climb out to Nicomen mtn just make sure you have enough height to cross the plateau. There is also another large hayfield to the east beside the gravel area in case of failed XC flight.
Takeoff altitude: 450m
