In the summertime, many of us enjoy flying in either Truckee
(soartruckee.com) or Minden (soarminden.com). Both are near lake
Tahoe, right on the border of California and Nevada. Both have
exceptional soaring conditions in the summertime.

I've never flown Minden, but I can highly recommend Soar Truckee. It's
a wonderful place with lots of friendly people, great soaring
conditions, a nice campground, and an all-around high quality
operation.

I'm not familiar with how rentals work at either one of these places.
If you're planning on flying there many times, it might be worth
joining one of the clubs that operate out of these airports in the
summertime. I'm a member of BASA (flybasa.org), which is a great and
very well equipped club. I know that NCSA (Northern California Soaring
Association) and Silverado also base gliders in Truckee in the summer.

Air sailing is another glider operation in the area, near Reno. I've
never been there, but I've heard it's a good place and the cost of
tows is supposed to be quite reasonable. http://www.airsailing.org/

Enjoy,

I would like to spend some time flying in Nevada (or some other place
on the West coast) and because of that I would like to ask you:
- which place would you recommend
- when is the best time to visit
- where I can rent glider
