Default Where is a good slope soaring place in Southern California

I just got a scale glider and would like to find a nice place for slope soaring in Southern California.
Thanks in advanced,
Daniel

If Kite Hill is in the Laguna Nigel area then it may be too small for this plane. I think you should consider Torry Pines. See if the Torry Pines Gulls club has any inland slope sites.

Also check the ISS club in Riverside. Think that the Harbor Soaring Soc. has club links. www.1hss.org

Col. Tomb goes slope flying . . . cute . . . I hope you're not intending the meaning of how those words together could be taken by some. I Org. wrote something else here about what I thought I connected but then noticed the pic of the Mig-15 canopy in your 'by line' box and now think I may have jumped the gun about what I thought you were trying to infer. I bet you didn't even think of it. Sorry.
