Takeoff description

A long windward mesa overlooking Bucaramanga with 2 launches that are top landing too. A large main LZ serves both sites below, with several alternative bailout landing areas. It's an excellent training site, featuring early morning and late afternoon sled rides for the novice pilot, mid morning thermic and XC flights, and afternoon dynamic ridge lift that transforms into glass-off conditions into sunset. Incredibly consistent conditions where you can practice kiting, top landing, and playing all day every day.
