Crazy Creek is generally open only on weekends which is very
unfortunate as it is one of the best places to soar in Northern California. I had three cross country flights there in Feb last year, one over 300k!. They also have wave conditions that occur with a variety of wind directions. Williams is another good choice and open every day except Tuesday. bumper wrote: "Marc Ramsey" wrote in message t... bumper wrote: I really liked Crazy Creek as well. Too bad they've closed. All the best to Jim and Connie. Unless you know something that the rest of us don't, Crazy Creek will be closing sometime in the next year or two, but is not currently closed... Marc No, I don't. I was told it was closed, but haven't visited there for some time. Glad I was told wrong. Thanks Marc. bumper |

Thanks all.
Looks like it's Minden or Warner Springs. I've been to Minden (got a double Lennie to show for it) but haven't been to Warner Springs. Minden's got a better rental fleet.... No votes for Truckee? wrote in message oups.com... This time of year, my vote would be Warner Springs (Sky Sailing (http://www.skysailing.com/)), near San Diego. Haven't been to Minden (yet) but I have been to WS once and it was beautiful and the folks were great. -ted/2NO |

Minden's got a better rental fleet.... No votes for Truckee? I flew at Warner Springs a couple of winters ago. The thermal soaring was good even in December. I got a 3.5 hour flight with tops at 10,500 on December 27th, 2003. They tell me that they get wave, thermal, ridge and convergence all year long. Nice winter climate, very good local accommodations. VERY nice people too. Bill Daniels |
