Flying sites in Pacific Northwest (Oregon Hang gliding flying sites)

 Oregon & Washington Hang Gliding / Paragliding flying sites

I live in Portland,Oregon and do fly regularly along with a few others living in Portland that flies on weekdays too. We fly during winter too. There are few sites here in Pacific Northwest is flyable year around. When it rains, it usually rain for a few hours then clears up. If you don't mind traveling the extra miles, there's a lot of options here in Pacific Northwest between Oregon and Washington. The Google maps below shows some of the flying sites I go during the weekend on short trips. There's also quite a few longer distance sites, such as: Black Mtn, Lakeview, Chelan, Woodrat........ etc. A couple inland sites; Chehelam (Newberg,OR) and Peterson Butte (Lebenon,OR) are also good places to go whenever you see the South wind components in the forecast.

I usually post on the CBCC and ohgalist list about my flying plans. You can also do the same.  Feel free to email me directly any time (No Facebook please). Looking forward to flying with you soon!
