What we look for at Bergen Rock

Wind direction

NE (45°) → SE (135°)

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

Ideal speed

5–15 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.

Foothills launch near Pine Junction/Bailey in the Front Range (~7,900 ft) with no published site guide — it isn't in RMHPA, XContest, or any club listing. The east-facing orientation on paraglidingEarth suggests light easterly or morning upslope works best, but nothing is verified. Prevailing winds here are W/NW, so expect lee-side rotor and strong afternoon thermals. Confirm orientation, access, and landowner permission with local pilots before flying.
