Access notes
Approach only from Avenue S via the west-side Farina Drive dirt road described by the source. Never use the eastern subdivision road; doing so can jeopardize site access.
Site rules
  • Do not use the road through the housing subdivision.
  • Do not fly over the houses.
  • Use the marked main top area or another locally confirmed face and identify the appropriate PG landing option before launch.
  • Vehicle access becomes rough and steep; park below the steep grade if the vehicle is unsuitable and walk the remaining section.
Launch directions
N, NE
Direction notes
North to northeast is the documented ridge orientation.
Safety notes
  • The site sits in a pass venturi and is often too windy for paragliders during Santa Ana flow.
  • Launch wind can be substantially stronger than wind on the desert floor, with compression and strong winds aloft.
  • Daytime conditions can be windy and thermic; smoother evening glass-off conditions are documented but are not guaranteed.
Additional notes
Multi-face north/northeast ridge area with a main top setup and sensitive neighborhood access protocol.
Map pin (general area)
PGE maps a main top point but also documents several possible faces; the pin represents the flying complex rather than every exact launch.
Navigation warning
General-area pin only; do not route through the eastern housing subdivision. Use the documented Farina Drive approach and confirm the current launch/LZ with local pilots.
