The BAPA Summer Solstice Fly-In will be at Hat Creek from Friday, June 19th - Sunday, June 21. Flying is primarily the glass-offs on Friday and Saturday nights. Hat Creek is famous for its scenic and smooth evening glass-offs. Paragliders usually launch later than 5:00 p.m. and sometimes fly until dark, depending on conditions.
For more information on Hat Creek including location and flying conditions, please go to -
http://hatcreek.info/Site%20Info-Recommended%20Pilot%20Skills.htm
Please note that the information on the page above is somewhat geared toward hgs - paragliders generally do not fly during the middle of the day because of the high winds. ** Good, strong launch and landing skills are very important at Hat Creek. ** It can be windy at launch and very still in the LZ (so you come in fast). Hat Creek is a lovely place - as you fly, you look out at Lassen, Burney Mountain and Mt. Shasta in the distance.
If you plan to come, please let me know so I have a general idea who to expect. email will be sent directly to BAPA members with coordination and camping logistics.
