Cotswold Slopers in winter, |
Peter's 1/4 scale Ash, a lot |
Cam Long Down |
Cam Long Down: A nice North facing ridge,
only spoilt by poor landing choices, the area in front is clear and
gives super smooth lift.

Directions: we lost a dozen good men trying to find the place, you are on your own. Satnav GL11 5HH is very near the car park
Parking: where the 'P' is, then head up, the slope is to the left of the hill in front of you, keep climbing till you reach the long ridge, this is on the Cotswold way
Landing: not the worst place in the world, but pretty close, try to skid along the front of the slope and hit something soft. The rotor is bad on the top
Dynamic Soaring: best in a SSW wind, there are less trees on the north side
Landing Out: If you do land out look for Bill and Fred, lost several month ago in the deep undergrowth
Para Gliders: A nice place but the trees cause problems, not used lately
Local club: http://www.scsa.org.uk/ the SCSA rarely use this slope due to the steep climb.
