Site rules
  • P1 training use under appropriate supervision
  • CUASA and USHPA membership required
  • Local briefing required
  • Confirm the source's published direction before setup
Launch directions
ENE, E, ESE
Direction notes
Current CUASA page publishes ideal 60-120 and acceptable 45-135 despite labeling the setup West; verify on site with CUASA.
Safety notes
  • Published label/direction inconsistency requires local confirmation
  • Training hill can become strongly thermic
  • Avoid crosswind and lee use
  • Maintain separation from the North face
Additional notes
The source inconsistency is preserved rather than silently corrected: West is the published face name, while the current page gives 60-120 degrees.
Map pin (exact launch)
OSM geometry resolves the separate setup labeled West in the current CUASA guide.
Navigation warning
The current CUASA page labels this West but publishes an east-sector numeric direction; verify the face and wind with CUASA during the required local briefing.
