Teston Rd Vaughn 2nd site
Best Wind Directions
About This Spot
The hill itself is a stepped hill with the peak around 890 feet above sea level that has good exposure to SSE and NNW.
There is also a W facing shallow slope that is a good beginners hill.
The top berm is perhaps 200 meters long, so that is the extent of ridge to soar. There are thermal sinks nearby, so if altitude is gained off of ridge lift, thermalling out is possible, especially on the south side where the sink is close by.
Ignore any roads shown around the site past Rodinea in Google Maps or satellite view. They are all closed to traffic except site maintenance people, so you will have to walk in and up.
Note: There are a few 'no trespassing' signs around this place. This land is owned by the city and is a natural gas pipe line pressure breaker site!
Takeoff altitude: 30m

Access Notes
Keele St and Teston Rd, head east to Rodinea St, then turn right (south). Drive to the end of Rodinea where the street barrier is and park on the side of the street there. Ignore the signs talking about guard dogs, that is for a large construction / yard site off to the west following the paved road. Walk past the concrete barriers and slightly right up the slope.
