Nice clear slope, with enough room for 2 gliders to launch at same time. Tricky top landing because of cables directly behind, but can be done if thermals are not kicking right over launch. Really tricky landing, lots of thermal activity surrounding the landing, It is best to use the road to track off your height and then follow the road in. To the left of the road normally has a lot of lift and to the right was a lot of sink, but this does vary. No low turns! I saw numerous heavy landings and one broken leg because of this. Best approach is to come in hands up because of the turbulence caused by a row of trees.

Do not fly if the upper winds are moving west, even if the wind is coming up the slope. This will often turn into a very rough convergence, that will kick you around like a beach ball.
