Description
The Crestline launch, located at approximately 1610 meters (5262 feet) above sea level, is a popular paragliding and hang gliding site in California, USA. This site is known for its thermal soaring and potential for cross-country flights. The launch area is carpeted and oriented south, making it suitable for light south to southwest winds.
Crestline is frequently used and offers stunning sunset flights during the summer. However, mid-day conditions can be too strong for paragliders, making it more suitable for hang gliders during that time. Top landing is possible, but pilots should be cautious due to surrounding tall trees and power lines.
The site record for a flight from Crestline is an impressive 249.3 km. For more detailed information, you can visit the Crestline Soaring Society's website: https://www.crestlinesoaring.org/
The landing zone (LZ) is shared with Marshall Peak at the Andy Jackson Airpark, which is well-maintained and provides amenities such as shade structures, chairs, and a large grassy area for packing up. Limited camping and RV parking are available for a nominal fee. Note that landing within the city limits of San Bernardino is prohibited by ordinance.
