Flysite

DESCRIPTION

There are normally higher winds here than at the Marshall launch which is about 300m (1000') lower. Marshall is an unusually reliable site, especially in the summer. Beginning May 1 there are often 100 soarable days in a row. How high you get and how far you might go XC depend on your skill but also largely on the day's conditions. Southern California often has a temperature inversion that limits soaring to 300-600 meters over Marshall launch, but some days are much higher. Non-CSS-members have to sign a waiver and pay a daily fee of 10USD! USHPA membership required! > see: http://www.crestlinesoaring.org/siteProtocols Access There are excellent maps on the site of instructors Rob and Diane McKenzie, who teach hang gliding and paragliding every day at Marshall.
