What we look for at The 'V' (at Bountiful)

Wind direction

SW (225°) → NW (315°)

The wind must blow from within this arc. Direction is the same for both wings.

Ideal speed

5–7 mph

Ceiling · Paragliding

≤ 19 mph base · gusts ≤ 23

Top of the range for paragliding (any rating). Switch wings up top to compare. Hang gliders hold roughly 10 mph more than paragliders.

West-facing launch above Bountiful/Centerville (~6,340 ft). The main West Launch is P2/H2 and works NW through SW; ideal 5-7 mph, keep it under about 10. A separate North Launch is P4/H4 only. Hazards: N or S winds bring cross-ridge rotor and sink, transmission lines and towers sit between launch and LZ, and there's an active gun range below — watch for the red flag. Best early morning or evening. Access by a 3.6-mile dirt road (4WD advised, may close Nov-Apr); USHPA + UHGPGA membership required.
