George Zelenz, 2006/2/28: Word of Caution: The Coyote Dry Lake ridge site is very unforgiving. Lots of injuries and near-fatal crashes have occured even among experienced pilots. I\'m not one to talk, but I would say that 99% of those were due to poor judgement at launch. Sometimes the wind goes from flaccid to honking in short order and with little or no warning. Single surface aircraft need to be especially picky about wind speed. Pilot beware. On the positive side, in Spring and Fall when the winds are generally less consistently ferocious, the ridge is a really cool place to fly. About 4 miles long with only one gap to jump, you can get a lot of air time. The LZ is a 4 mile wide and 6 mile long dry lake bed. If you can\'t hit it, god help you. The ridge has been flown since at least 1976. The ridge and dry lake are BLM land, and currently there is no restriction for flying.
