Welcome to the Northwest Paragliding Club Homepage. Paragliding is a new aviation sport and we here in Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia are blessed with mountains to fly from. This page is intended for both club members and the general public. Like all other homepages we're planning on more content in time. Keep an eye on us, we promise more to come.- Gary Paulin
New In August:
 | Blanchard LZ closed (temp) The normal LZ at Blanchard is newly planted and therefore closed. Some people have been ignoring the closure. This puts the LZ in jeopardy. Use the Duck Club LZ instead!!!! |
| Black Mountain is re-opened. This 4,000+ foot hill is on private land. To gain entry you need to get on a list. Call or e-mail Lee Crabtree with your USHGA number to get listed and to receive instructions. |
