Access notes
Launch lies on Park City Resort property under the current UHGPGA site arrangement. UHGPGA/USHPA membership and P3 are required; this red row requires current authorization and is scoped only to the 14-acre Meadow LZ.
Site rules
- P3/H3; P2 only under direct certified supervision
- UHGPGA and USHPA membership required
- Use the Meadow LZ for this stored operation
- Do not use PC Hill/North 40 under this dataset's facility rule
Launch directions
WSW, SW, S, SSE
Direction notes
Current guide gives WSW through SSE, with strongest preference for south flow and a short safe launch window.
Safety notes
- 9,980-foot high-density-altitude launch
- Rapid overdevelopment, gust fronts and cyclic thermals
- Meadow drainage can be marshy
- Minimum glide and east-valley bailout planning are critical
Additional notes
Current guide revised 1 January 2026. Optional Park City LZs remain pilot-discretionary; PC Hill was separately screened at 2.34 km from 36UT and removed from this row's approved scope.
Map pin (exact launch)
Current UHGPGA guide publishes the Jupiter Peak launch coordinate.
Navigation warning
This approval is limited to the primary Meadow LZ. PC Hill/North 40 is inside the dataset's 3.2 km heliport buffer and is not an approved landing option here.
