Re: Flying Saturday
I would love to Fly Saturday. The forecast that I saw for Ridgely didn't look great..... I have never been to Bill's.
Re: Flying Saturday
Bills Hill is a east facing ridge near Breezewood, PA (2 1/2 hours from DC). This site is approved for P2/H2s. If you haven't flown the site before you should to get a site briefing from someone who has because the LZ can be a long glide if you're not in lift.
For new P2s: Ridgely is a hang glider aerotowing park called Highland Aerosports in Ridgely, MD. They aren't currently setup for paraglider towing. Blue Sky in Manquin, VA can tow paragliders via scooter/truck. Contact Steve Wendt at Blue Sky to see when he's available to teach/tow paragliders before you go. If you haven't towed before he typically teaches morning and evenings.

Re: Flying Saturday
I'm down for Bills or Blue Sky on Saturday. Haven't done either.
Re: Flying Saturday
Forecast for Bills was looking really nice earlier in the week... now, not so much
