I don't see this site in the site Mid Atlantic Site Guide.....

... where is it? Specs?

Take PA-74 north out of Carlise to the top of the ridge. Launch is on your left just before you cross the top. It's about 1000ft, faces SSE.
The owners of the launch have said it's OK to launch, but I cant find anyone who has actually flown there.
Looks like a good site for the conditions we had today and forecast for tomorrow.

I drove up there several months ago but could not find the launch. Can someone tell me exactly where it is? How about coordinates so I can look it up on GE.

40 16'35.56", -77 16'38.74"
On GE you will see a light colored patch just to the south of the building.

I think it was Alan Hobner who called me a few years ago to remind me about it. I have no idea where he is these days.
