Additional notes
Nice ample grassy slopes facing both north and south. Excellent starting point for XC Offical LZ: Large clear field on the other side of the river, but many LZ's available for XC along BR116 (main XC direction). BUT: watch out for (hardly visible) power lines along road/across (possible landing) fields!
