Top of the range for paragliding (any rating) — switch wings up top to compare. Hang gliders hold roughly 10 mph more than paragliders.
No flying guide found for a Five Springs launch - sources only cover Five Springs Falls (hiking/camping/ice climbing) on the west-facing Bighorn escarpment above US-14A near Lovell. If flyable it's a high-desert thermal/XC site best late morning to midday, with committing cliff terrain and few bailout LZs. The listed S/SW orientation doesn't match the west-facing terrain, so treat direction as unverified and confirm locally before flying.
