The Point is a fantastic place to paraglide! It is one of the most consistent sites in North America. Unfortunately, we still can’t fly all day every day, so we’ve put together a list of other fun things in the SLC area to tie you over until the next flyable day. Whether you’re here for lessons or just a visiting pilot from out of town, there’s plenty to do while waiting for the weather to clear.
