Access notes
Contact and book with ParaglideTours for the current Reno-Tahoe tandem, lesson, or tow location. The exact daily field and access route are operator-directed.
Site rules
  • Use the site only through the operator's current tandem, lesson, or towing program.
  • The source documents winch operations from May 15 through October 31; confirm the current season and daily location before travel.
  • Follow the operator's launch direction and headwind-landing plan rather than navigating independently to the general pin.
Launch directions
N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW
Direction notes
The winch record states that all directions can be aligned for launch/headwind landing; southwest is typical.
Safety notes
  • Density altitude is documented as very high from June through September.
  • Typical wind is southwest even though operator-controlled winch alignment can support headwind launches and landings in all directions.
Additional notes
Current Reno-Tahoe paragliding operator with a recently updated legacy winch-area record; the point is generalized because the official site does not publish a fixed field.
Map pin (general area)
PGE publishes a Reno-Tahoe winch-area coordinate, while the current operator website does not identify it as a fixed public launch; treat it only as a service area.
Navigation warning
General operator-area pin only; not a launch, field entrance, or booking location. Contact ParaglideTours for the current operating site.
