About Houser Rd Towing

Houser Rd Towing is a tow park near Eloy, Arizona. Pilots are towed up behind a line, so wind direction matters much less than on a hill. We call it too windy above 16 mph or with gusts over 20. The closest other site we cover is Samaniego Ridge, 43 miles away. Read the site guide on azhpa.org for rules and access before you fly.

Conditions are an automated estimate from public forecast models, not a go/no-go call. Always check the sky, talk to locals, and fly within your rating. You are responsible for your own safety.
