Gliding

“I decided to fly through the air and live in the sunlight and enjoy life as much as I could.” (Evel Knievel) Another camper told us about this hangliding & paragliding center not far from the campground. (Lookout Mountain Hangliding & Paragliding https://www.flylookout.com) It was relaxing watching them silently glide around and overhead. There was a launch area at the top where the hanggliders would launch themselves off the mountain. And there also was a small airport in the valley from which planes would take off and tow the paraglides up to a release point.

Just so fun!

Lovely shot and scene, it must be such fun but not for me.

There are so many clubs here in CT and I think many tourists just come for this thrill.

The tree helps with perspective.

Neat capture

I'm sure the view and photo opps are amazing from up there but I don't think my stomach could handle all the flutters! Good catch.

[Babs]

Up, up and away. Must have a great view form up there.

Quite the adventurer!

Wow, like watching birds that soar and seem to be playing in the wind. I love the idea, but somehow wouldn’t dare to do it….to be young and daring again.
