I'm interested in doing some ridge flights in the Northeast US at various sites like Blairstown, Wurtsboro, Springfield etc...


Hi Greg,
Nice to meet you on Saturday. Funny, but I was about to ask the same question here about New Jersey's long ridges. Daniel, thanks for the good info. Can you start at Wurtsboro, NY or does the ridge get too low to soar between there and Blairstown, NJ area?

Greg, about Springfield, VT; The ridge is reachable from a 1500 foot pattern tow and faces South to Southeast. Winds of 10mph or better are good. It is about 2.5 miles from the airport and if you leave at ridge level you can easily make it back in a 2-33. The ridge is about 1000' vertical. It is not very long, maybe 2 miles. Hope that helps.
