Owens Valley

Snow-capped mountains under a clear blue sky.

Thermal and XC Clinics

The valley known around the world for being a formidable place, commands much respect for any level of pilot.


Our guides that we work with have extensive knowledge of flying in the Sierra, Inyo, and White mountain ranges. We have taken novice pilots and seasoned 1000 hour+ pilots on many tours through the Owen's Valley. Many pilots achieve their personal bests in altitude, duration, and distance flown on this tour.


We ask that you come with solid launching and landing skills needed for  a desert environment. Strong, switching, and unpredictable cycles on a high altitude takeoff are common.  Having done an SIV is mandatory, and we may ask for peer/mentor references before sign ups are permitted. 


Closely monitoring the weather each day, we will drive you to the best place for flying. We base our clinic out of Bishop, CA which gives us a large reach of many launches.


This is hands down the best introduction you can get into paragliding in the valley and planning future trips.
