Tows - Rides - Instruction
$95 for approximately 25 minutes

Scenic Glider Rides Rides run second weekend in May through second weekend in October.  All Rides Contingent on the Weather. Rides allow one passenger per sailplane with F.A.A. Certified Pilot.

Sailplanes are towed aloft by a power plane to an altitude of 9,000 to 9,500 feet, and then released. As you soar like an eagle back to the glider port, you will be able to see the beautiful San Juan mountains, around 100 miles of scenery in any direction, plus the Animas River winding through the valley.

This ride can be taken any time during the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 6 p.m., 7 days a week, with weather permitting. Soaring conditions are smoother in the morning before noon and more thermal activity in the afternoon. Maximum weight per passenger is 260 pounds.
