Small soaring/thermal hill in Riverside County. Works on a south-ish breeze (SE through SW), best in a light-to-moderate straight-in wind; north or west flow blows over the back into rotor. Thermic inland site — fly morning or late afternoon to dodge midday overdevelopment. No formal club site rules found; verify access locally before flying.
