Description

Located in Oregon, USA, this paragliding site offers an elevation of approximately 1500 meters with a height difference of around 200 meters. It's a walk-and-fly site that is rarely used, but when conditions are right, it can be incredibly rewarding. The site is suitable for soaring and offers some opportunities for cross-country flights. The site record stands at 12.0 km, and it is similar to the Abert Rim Walkup. The hike to the launch point is steep, but the effort is worth it when the conditions are favorable. The site allows for a wide range of wind directions due to its widely exposed face, but the wind should ideally be as close to westerly as possible.
