It seems like this area is pretty dry. No clubs, no instructors, no launches, few pilots...
Is there anywhere to hang glide around here? Or anyone who hang glides? |

It looks like it. The only thing I pulled up when I searched "Windriders" was a HG club in Utah... that'd be a bit of a hike for me.
I wonder why it seems no one launches in South Jersey. We might not be the most hilly region around but there is the ocean and some mountain like places like the Pine Barrens. |
