Cross Country Strategy
Truckee is a wonderful place to fly from in a glider. Because of its position in a small, narrow valley, pilots on cross country flights enjoy an early start and a variety of choices of where to go - north, south or east. Even on a very good day, however, getting back into the valley can be a challenge. Learn what experience has taught the many pilots who have flown out of (and back to) Truckee here.
​
Camping
Soar Truckee is not just a wonderful place to fly from in a glider, it has also been a wonderful place to bring family and friends, socialize, "hanger fly" at the end of soaring day and campout.
