Dates: July 27, 2024 – August 4, 2024

Open-Distance XC

From the organizer:

Known by the regulars as “The Willi”, this co-ed hang gliding/paragliding meet began in 1997. This will be the 28th year of what started as a side bet challenge among a small group for flying friends and has grown into an annual XC pilgrimage for many pilots from across Canada, the US, and elsewhere.

With The Lookout on Mount 7 as the launch point, the competition focuses on Open-Distance XC and Out-and-Return flights at one of the premier XC sites in North America. This is your best, safest and most fun opportunity to fly big distance in the mountains.

Race to Goal Task

From the organizer:

This is a class "B" meet with race to goal task. Flying over the Alberta Prairies and sometimes even into Saskatchewan. It is a Hang Gliding tow competition, however paragliders are more then welcome to come and join in the fun, provided they arrange their own towing apparatus, driver and scorekeeper. Scores will be tallied daily with flight instruments submitted for recording by the meet scorekeeper. Pilot meetings will be held at home base (Swalwell Community Centre) each morning prior to driving out to the tow site, located just north of Carbon Alberta.
