Reglas / notas
There is presently no flight regulation/enforcement. However, the La Salina ridge is privately owned by the Ejido La Mision. You need to check in at the Ejido office in La Mision, as there is a site fee. OR locate BajaBrent and he will assist you with this. Do not camp on the site without permission.
Comentarios de pilotos
A blend of ridge soaring and thermalling. Possibility of going XC over the back plateau. It is also possible to XC the entire ridge from Cantamar to Ensenada, crossing thru La Salina. A typical flight, based upon your stamina, is 1-2 hrs. But flights in excess of 3 hrs are not unusual.
