Your location in a sparsely populated area is the key obstacle.
Look at the history of Glider ops in similar locations.
Ronan MT is located in Lake County which had 28,947 people in 2013. It has a per capita income of $20,164
Salida CO is located in Chaffee which had 17,809 in 2010. It has a per capita income of $19,430
As of three years ago, there were several self-launch gliders based in Salida. The availability of a privately owned towplane for tows was uncertain.
Can others suggest other comparable glider operations?
