Later, some went back up for seconds and I snapped this pic. Now imagine three times as many gliders in the same section of the ridge.

Unbelievable day at Brace in Millerton, NY
When was the last time you saw 34 (yes, THIRTY-FOUR) paragliders and one hang glider in the air at the same time on the East Coast? 40+ PGs total throughout the day. It was my first time at this 1600 foot site on a beautiful ridge. The flying itself was solid but not epic, you could stay up pretty much for as long as you want though the ceiling wasn't high enough to xc and everyone stayed on the ridge or in the valley over the lz. At times the ridge got really busy with 20 glider gaggles. And all this at a North East mountain site with a 40 min hike-in!
