Mt. Sima

Ensure you check-in with guest services prior to flying or contact the general manager if during off-season. HPAC insurance must be presented and site orientation completed. This is not a beginner site due to the distance to the LZ presently and the complications of the LZ (buildings, traffic, power lines). There are three launches. Two South Launches and a North Launch. To get to the North Launch (closest), take the chair lift and go right. It's right there on Dan's Descent. During skiing season, be sure to leave enough room when setting up your wing to allow skiers to pass by. To get to the south launch, go straight, then left when existing the chair lift. Hike up to the Observation Tower (about 5 minutes). The SouthEast launch (new) is directly below the tower. For the South Launch, follow the Lefty Loosey bike trail called down (2-3 minutes). You will walk right past the open open clear launch. Hard to miss.

This is not a beginner site. The LZ from South Launch is not directly visible and has a 6:1 glide ratio. New pilots or pilots on older wings should not fly here.

Mt. Sima is Yukon's newest HPAC Insured site and has taken a lot of energy to open the hill have have it approved for paragliding. Your support is appreciated. Consider getting a season pass and ensure the site regulations are followed.

Sima offers Panoramic Chairlift rides which you can also take to the paragliding launch. During ski season, the lift runs regularly.
