Access notes
Jack's Mountain is an open Hyner Club site near Belleville. The current page rates it P3/H3, allows H2 only with a mentor, requires the Hyner Club waiver, recommends membership, and says the club sites should not be flown without a season-appropriate member briefing. Obtain the current parking, guardrail launch, LZ, crop, retrieval, and landowner instructions before use.
Site rules
  • Complete the current Hyner waiver and receive the club's season-appropriate site briefing before flight.
  • Meet the P3 requirement; lower-rated use is not established for PG, and the H2 mentor exception must not be transferred to paragliders.
  • Land only in the currently designated alfalfa strips and carry the wing to the gravel road before packing, as directed by the club.
  • Respect crops, roads, guardrail setup limits, landowners, retrieval routes, and every current club restriction; no PPG is established.
Launch directions
SE
Direction notes
The current club page specifies southeast at 135 degrees; obtain the usable crosswind and speed limits in the current briefing.
Safety notes
  • The site is about 1,150 feet AGL with a southeast 135-degree slot launch in front of the guardrail.
  • The published LZ is flat but seasonally cropped and approximately 6:1. Confirm which strips are legal and usable before launch.
  • The current page says lower-rated hang glider pilots should head out as soon as below launch; PG pilots should obtain discipline-specific minimum-altitude and LZ guidance rather than extrapolating.
  • The displayed launch is 11.377 km from operational 1PA4 Wagner aerodrome and intersects no current Restricted or Prohibited polygon.
Additional notes
Current exact PG site retained with visible club/waiver/briefing controls. The current club page and an independent contemporary road-trip guide both corroborate Jack's Mountain PG use.
Map pin (exact launch)
Automated exact launch point corroborated by the current Hyner Club site identity and Belleville location. The public page withholds detailed LZ coordinates.
Navigation warning
Exact launch pin but not a parking, guardrail setup, LZ, or retrieval route. Complete the waiver and current Hyner briefing before navigating to the site.
