THGF - Flight Park

About

This site is a demonstration site that we at THGF are going to call our own. We have always wanted to be able to fly North Table Mountain in Golden, but it was never going to be possible because of land ownership issues, access and the encroachment of new development. This is a very common theme in the search for great flying sites! We like the area because it has steep and/or cliff launches possible in 270 degrees (or more). It has land-able terrain in all directions (even if the land owners might be hostile!). Building multiple launch ramps would be very possible to make the launches even more accessible. In addition, the entire top of the mountain is relatively flat so top landings are very possible. That flat area on top is so large that we could set up an aerotow operation working at the same time! You could winch tow too. This creates a site that is highly soarable and all forms to Hang Gliding launch types could be taught our used at the same place. Our last wish would be to put a Hang Gliding clubhouse on top that pilots and families could hang out at when not flying. We would include camping and other fun activities for the whole family. While just a wish list, we can make this happen in the virtual world!
