Access notes
National-forest hike-and-fly launch. The source describes either NF15-N01 to the shooting-range dirt turnoff followed by a GPS-guided walk after the road is blocked, or an approximately 80-minute hike up Prospect Trail from near the waste station.
Site rules
  • ESE is the only documented takeoff direction.
  • Use GPS and a current forest map; the remote road/trail approach is not self-evident.
  • The launch was developed in early 2026 and may need maintenance because of its remote location and limited flyable conditions.
Launch directions
ESE
Direction notes
The source identifies ESE as the only possible launch direction.
Safety notes
  • The source explicitly warns not to get lost on the remote approach.
  • Potentially dangerous summer conditions are documented, while summer behavior remains insufficiently characterized.
Additional notes
The July 2026 source update reports seven known flights and describes this as a remote, condition-limited ESE site.
