This is seriously a world class flying site. Whether you are a pilot or just someone interested in flying, you will not be disappointed visiting here. People are always friendly and pilots are always very eager to share their experiences. Come out and get hooked on flying, there are plenty of schools around and you can start learning to fly!

Was free camping until tomorrow. They out up signs today stating it was now going to be 15 bucks a night. Such a spectacular view,really breathtaking. Overlooks the mine right at your feet. The entire valley is laid out in front of you with panoramic perfect setup for georgous hd pictures.

Great spot for learning. It was a bit crowded but was able to get my daughter in her wheelchair to the top from the parking area so she could experience her first paraglide.

Great place for soaring. Some paragliders fly in the rc area but no big deal. Plenty of wind for soaring. Magnificent view. Winds are usually 10 to 15 mph plenty of lift.

There is an RC park for planes and rally mobiles on the far left side. The wind is the best and it never gets to hot!

You can legally park here with your camper/van for 14 consecutive nights! Youll wake up to tons of parachuters and hand gliders floating around the hill in front of you!

This had a great view of both the Utah valley and the salt lake valley. Its fun to watch paragliders and hanggliders take off and land.

The pilots and staff of the commercial sector have good rapport with each other and will help you find the right team. Weather is a factor, but if Zephyrus fails to show up or is in a wrathful mood, they will work with you to reschedule so you get a good flight. Once youre in the air you finally realize just how big of a drag gravity exerts upon you constantly. Paragliding is freedom from the downward pull. Skydiving is facing that pull head on and on a dare and praying that physics saves your butt. :)
