Tehachapi Slope Site

Tehachapi Flying Site, Tehachapi, CA USA
Just a few miles upwind from the huge Windmills, Tehachapi usually has very good lift. Landing is easy, but retrieval can be a problem due to a tremendous amount of prickers in the grass ... but the amount of lift more than makes up for it. There are no restrooms nearby, so do your business in town!
