DESCRIPTION

Several opportunities for new launches. The ones that have been flow include a short hike up a small hill beside a pullout on the right hand side of the road. The pullout is just before a long stretch where the road sidecuts into a valley ridge. From that launch, you can fly the entire valley, evening glass-off works really well for this site.

Other launches are a short hike from the highway.

All launches are from a relatively high ASL already, so its not a great thermal location.Beautiful. There are a few places to fly along this stretch of Highway. Look for them and you will find them. GPS Coordinates are not correct, only an approximation (need help from local pilots).

Access

About 10 km before the US/Canada Border along the Top of the World Highway is where people have have successful flights, but an adventurous pilot is likely to make new sites in the general area.

Rules

Be aware you are near the border and land on the same side you took off from.
