Does anyone have information on the glider port near Westcliffe Colorado?
I could not find it on the SSA places to fly list.
Thanks!

Lake Creek Glider Port still shows up on the sectionals,
but is now irrigated with a pivot and has deep furrows
from the wheels. Ed Thorton ran that operation and
also flew a borrowed 1-26 from it to a landing at Salt
Lake International Airport. Anyone know what he is
up to these days?

Randy Kempf has a SGU 2-22CK based there and has a Super Cub to tow it. He runs
the FBO when he isn't out flying a Airbus for a living. Great guy..used to work
at Estrella in the 70's as a tow pilot and instructor.

Do you know if he will he tow others? I'm getting real tired of
trailering to Boulder from Salida (Westcliffe is a 45 minute drive).

Thanks,
