Takeoff description
Open for now but there is no safe LZ available at the moment. Anywhere that looks good is off-limits due to private property and would jeopardize the site. XC flying is the best bet to find a safe LZ. Please message a local before flying this site to get the low down (https://www.socalxcleague.com/ Aaron Price) Take-off can be found on the trail up to Henninger flats out of the Eaton Canyon Wash. As you are nearing the campground, you will be on a last leg of the trail heading West-ish. As you enter this leg there will be a small power line going up the ridge that you will cross underneath, about 40 yards past this you will see a steep dirt path that leads up about 10' to a grassier slope, this is your launch. There is one tree which divides the launch between a South launch and a West launch so choose carefully which was you want to launch, depending on the cycle it can blow both ways.
