Location: above Orem UT - 1 hour South of Salt Lake City.

Altitude: 6700 ft

Vertical: 1800 ft
 
Our most used site after the Point of the Mountain.  Paved road to launch.  Good cross-country potential.  Very consistent thermalling conditions.  Climbs to 15,500 ft on the better days.  Used by newer thermalling and cross-country pilots.  Can turn into a very advanced site.

I remember the first time we went here to fly, our "hang" buddies (who were very helpful and I feel indebted to) cautioned us and said that they didn't think we could make it to the landing zone, that it was too turbulent, therefore shouldn't fly here. Back in those days, neither hanglider pilots or paraglider pilots really knew what paragliders could or couldn't do... the sport was so new to all of us.  We said "thank you very much" and then set up and launched anyway.  It has proven to be a wonderful place to fly and one must still use caution to enjoy it fully.
