What time of the year are you talking about? What kind of soaring are you
looking for, wave? Ridge? Thermals?

The best ridge soaring maybe in the world is at Ridge Soaring Gliderport,
http://www.eglider.org/gliderport.htm

If you're looking to get into the wave, your best bet is probably Soar
Minden, http://www.soarminden.com/

The best thermal soaring in the world is in the Great Basin of California,
and Nevada area. There are many soaring sites in this area, Sky Sailing is
one we visit a lot, http://www.soarminden.com/

But as far as best all around vacation spot come up here to Oregon, not the
best soaring, but here in the Columbia Gorge we have wind surfing, kite
boarding, kayaking, mountain biking, year around snow skiing and snow
boarding, 12K mountains, deserts, oceans, lakes with great fishing, great
restaurants and hotels, all very close to the Hood River airport. Call me
or e-mail because our web site isn't ready yet. Gary Boggs, 503-708-8869.

Las Vegas is hard to beat for good soaring and great entertainment, but the
scenery isn't so hot. (Unless the strippers count)
