Access notes
Current 2026 tracks establish repeated PG use, but no current self-service legal launch/LZ guide is published. Coordinate with current Cashmere pilots for the exact public/private parcel, USFS-road status, parking, setup, landing permission, and retrieve.
Site rules
  • Obtain a current local introduction and confirm the exact launch parcel and legal access before leaving public roads or trails.
  • Do not cross private Hay Canyon parcels, residences, orchards, gates, fences, or the Aerial Ranch property without explicit authorization.
  • Obey current USFS, county, fire, road, trail, snow, mud, and vehicle restrictions.
  • Secure and freshly screen a legal non-airfield LZ and retrieve before launch.
  • Check current airspace, TFRs, NOTAMs, wildfire/smoke, valley wind, and weather before flight.
Direction notes
No current authoritative reusable direction set was verified; use the exact locally identified face and briefing.
Safety notes
  • The area pin does not supply launch direction, surface, wind limit, LZ, obstacle, or emergency-route detail.
  • Mountain thermals, rotor, gust fronts, wildfire, trees, roads, powerlines, snow, and private-valley land are material hazards.
  • The nearby Aerial Ranch row is a separate private operator; this record does not confer access to it.
Additional notes
Expanded current-use flying locality with ten 2026 XC flights through June 19; retained as a non-navigation area pin requiring local coordination.
Map pin (general area)
Wilder/XContest launch cluster near the mountain, not a surveyed setup, trailhead, or private-property entrance.
Navigation warning
Flying-area discovery pin only. Have a current Cashmere pilot identify the legal exact launch, route, parking, LZ, and property boundaries before travel.
