What we look for at battleship row

Wind direction

ENE (70°) → SSE (160°)

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

Ideal speed

7–15 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.

High-elevation launch (~9,500 ft) west of Laramie in the Sheep Mountain/Laramie Range area. The orientation hint points to E-SE flow, with NE-to-S as the edges. Thin air and strong midday thermals; the prevailing wind here is W/SW, so the working easterly arc relies on thermic or post-frontal flow. Undocumented site — verify access and landing zones with local pilots.
