Takeoff description

This is an advanced site due to the lack of landing zones! Take off is a 20 minute hike up a steep but nice hill with a 3000 foot mountain behind it. Most hike about 100 yards above the \'B\', really the top of the open area, to launch, any higher is very hard to find open areas to launch, though I have found one another 45 minutes higher.
