Default Parowan UT 2016

Six weeks ONLY June - Mid July.

Yes - we will have a tow plane available: a 210 HP C172. Not the quickest tug off the line, but has done fine for two seasons including ballast on all but the hottest days. I would prefer to keep "groups" to 8 - 10 max, so it is imperative that you call me in advance to reserve a spot. If no one appears to be interested in coming, I'll do a motorcycle or airplane trip and won't be around. So again - please let me know of your interest, plans, and number in your group if you're coming with others.

For those possibly new to Parowan - there are frequent 1000K flights, usually off of 2000 AGL tows, tons of no-fly day activities such as mountain biking, fishing, camping. Four national parks within 200 miles. 10 RV hookups (electricity only). Shower/bathrooms on the field. O2 and maintenance.

One "no-frill" hotel in town, plus several B&Bs. All the majors 15 miles south in Cedar City.

Again - Please EMAIL OR CALL with your plans: 435.669.4544 /

Since there is no Nephi OLC camp this year, it is a great opportunity to visit Parowan instead. The soaring potential and playground is the same except that you start from the southern part instead.
