The wind must blow from within this arc. Direction is the same for both wings.
Ideal speed
3–10 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.
Thermal mountain site in Mt. Nebo State Park managed by Buffalo Mountain Flyers, with three launches. The NE (Visitor Center) launch works in NE wind (30-60), the East launch in E (85-95), and the HG-only South launch in the S. Ideal 6-10 mph, max ~18, low gust tolerance (~5 mph). Fly early before the NE slope shades over; expect strong sink in the valley between launch and the LZ. Requires P3/H3, $1M liability insurance, plus Visitor Center registration and daily sign-in.
