Before heading to Hat Creek Rim please read the updates found here: http://www.hatcreek.info We are encouraging everyone to follow site protocol if you plan on flying the site.

Posted here ( http://www.hatcreek.info/SiteInfo.htm scroll down on the page) is a recent letter from the Forest Service regarding the changes at the site and the importance of the Use Permit there.

Thanks.

Here's another point of view. http://friendsofhatcreekrim.bravehost.com
no helmets required.
who wants to fly without one?
how do you spell BIKER?

We Bay Area pilots revere the ' less' regulated Forest Service lands .

It's too bad and irresponsible IMHO to disregard the Forest Service and USHPA information found on the Hat Creek Rim web site (http://www.hatcreek.info). The Forest Service controls the flying site, the idea we can go about our business and disregard their wishes is misguided and shortsighted. Likewise, the idea that the site can't be shut down by the Forest Service is lacking credibility. The USHPA makes it clear what our responsibilities are at an insured site (even if its on FS land) and the Forest Service appreciates our efforts. Follow the link and see the information for yourself. The majority of the flying community has long supported and used the site responsibly. Now is not the time to change that trend.

I appeal to every pilot headed to the Rim to take the time to follow the suggested site protocol. If you have questions feel free to call 916.838.1064.
