Additional notes
Natural ramp, wide enough for 30 set-ups. Usual wind from 15 to 20 mph, sometimes stronger than that. Very beautiful view from Pedra do Cavalo lake dam. Easy lift and usual, strong thermals. For XC flights, one must be flying very high in the first 6 miles in order to cross the lake, then just follow the roads and cities forever. It’s the nearest flying site to Salvador. Access to the ramp in bad conditions. Short take-off area. Dificult paraglider take-off.
