No specific site data found for "Jordanelle (north)." It is not listed in the UHGPGA (Utah Hang Gliding & Paragliding Assn) site guide, paraglidingEarth, XContest, or the Wilder Adventures Utah launch directory — none of these document a Jordanelle launch. Wind window below is INFERRED from the paraglidingEarth orientation hint (SE, S, SW octants), not from a published guide. Ideal core arc ~150-210 deg (wind FROM the south), tapering to marginal/cross at the SE (~120) and SW (~240) edges. Speeds are conservative high-elevation defaults: site sits at ~7067 ft MSL, so true airspeed exceeds indicated handling figures and thermals can be punchy. Expect strong midday thermic/valley-wind cycles in the Wasatch back valleys near Jordanelle Reservoir; smoothest soaring likely morning or evening. HAZARDS unknown — possible lee-side rotor if wind backs to N/W (the working octants face SE/S/SW), unverified LZ, and unconfirmed airspace/access/landowner status near Jordanelle State Park. Treat as unvetted: verify direction limits, speed limits, LZ, rating requirement, and access with a local pilot or UHGPGA before flying.
