For those who asked for specifics on the slope I fly. I don't know the GPS numbers, but I found it on mapquest. As you can see in the photo, its a large mountain top that has been cleared out and flatened. The large WEST slope is very apparent with its bowl shape and stair steps. You can even see the pond on the EAST slope( black rectangle). This is where we DS and is in the video. Another West slope is visable further South. We have flown there too but it is not as good as the large one.

Also, here is a link to some directions. There is a new short cut that we take but these are still good.
