Klíčové informace
Podmínky
Although close to a main road, launch itself can be difficult to find. Its recommended to take a guide with you. There are 2 lookouts on the Bright Gap Rd. To find launch, locate the higher lookout (it has a viewing ramp sticking out from the ridge and a round shaped parking area). Opposite the lookout, drive up the steep rocky dirt track from the hairpin bend in the main road for about 1km. The f A Subaru Forester or Outback will do it easy. Launch is an astroturfed ramp through a tree slot. The LZ can't be seen from launch. High tension powerlines run along this side of the valley and are visible from launch.
Přístup a přistání
4WD is not necessary but a car with adequate ground clearance is advisable. Near the top, there will be a clearing where you can turn the car around. Do this here and drive back downhill 200m or so stopping when you see some steps cut into the embankment on your right. That is the walking track to launch. Be careful driving in or out of this track. Watch for traffic as the intersection with the main road is a blind corner!.
