Provo Utah in September paragliding above the Wasatch Front Range overlooking the Salt Lake Valley
Clean, white Provo Utah was the site of the last major paragliding national competition for 2011. Launching from Inspiration Point above BYU, the task was to go as far as we could; no turn points, no goal, just distance. No one made it out of state, but there were some 80 mile flights.
Then there were mine.
Anyway, here's what it looked like.

A warm evening in Monroe Utah the night before the Red Rocks National Paragliding Championships begins. This is how the best paragliders in the world fly the glass-off. Oh, I was there, too.
