Stonehenge (Closed)

• Wind directionSW (225°) → W (270°)
• Ideal speed8–15 mph
• Upper limits≤ 18 mph base · gusts ≤ 20

CLOSED SITE — do not fly. Per the SDHGPA site guide, Stonehenge (near Lake Hodges / Bing Crosby GC, north San Diego County, ~955 ft MSL) "is no longer a usable launch location"; the best former launch is now a fenced orchard on private property, "closed to all access." Flying here is trespassing. Rated P4+++ (expert) even when it was usable. Hazards: no LZ (top/side-hill landings only), unimproved boulder/stick-strewn terrain, complex micro-terrain with shifting micro wind directions; the gorge north toward the Lake Hodges dam is a known high-wind venturi; the hill out front toward Bing Crosby Golf Course is a potential rotor generator. Narrow soaring band — only 3-4 pilots could fly at once. No source publishes explicit wind-direction or speed numbers. The direction arc (W to SW, met ~225-270 ideal / 200-290 marginal) and the speed figures are INFERRED from the SW,W orientation hint and typical coastal-foothill PG soaring limits, not from a club guide. Verify nothing here — the site is closed.
