Takeoff description
Although Big Black is in the Cleveland National Forest, it is a highly sensitive site. After years of working with the Palomar Ranger District we feel very fortunate to have regained access and to fly there via a Special Use Permit. Small cutout between trees: Being nested in pines, launch can be tricky for paraglliders, but ok for hang gliders.
