Trail is fine. Hikers should watch the paragliders take off - conditions permitting - from the upper take-off ramp. For paragliders sailing down to the landing zone by the parking lot, descent time is 7 minutes. One expert said that he actually flew from Poo Poo Point over Snoqualmie Pass, up the Teanaway Valley and over the Enchanments to Cashmere.

Awesome photo with Issaquah and Lake Sam background. I'm curious what focal length lens you used.

Replying. (Also added a comment below with same information.) Used our Samsung S27 cellphone with about 6x enlargement and waited for the paraglider to cross the frame. See our blog for other good ideas. Glad you liked the picture.

Thanks. I was sure you'd need a fancy stand-alone camera, not a phone, for that shot. Shows what I know!

DRDana - Replied to your question via WTA, but here is same information. Used our Samsung S27 i-phone. Used about 6x setting and waited for the paraglider to cross frame. More p[ix and details from other hikes, climbs and off-roading at www.deetezellimountainstories/wordpress.com
