This is a 3000' hike and fly with a landing near Grant Lake that can be turbulent, giving collapses near the ground, especially on west wind days. Good luck.

Landing area at Grant Lake. Put a wind indicator where you intend to land. Turbulence is present when the wind is more than 10 MPH. Pilots have been dropped when only 10 to 20 feet over the surface.

A spot out near the river might have less turbulence, especially if the wind is strong.
