ParaSoft Travel - New Mexico

Parasoft heads 500 miles south in November to Alamagordo, New Mexico. For over 2 years our clients have enjoyed two 2,500' vertical drive-up sites: Dry Canyon and Rudioso.

 
  Ridge Soaring at Dry Canyon, NM
     
 
Landing is easy next to the parking lot at the Space Museum making for quick turnarounds.   New Mexico launch
     
 
Ruidoso Ski Area offers a 2,500' drive-up alternative when the winds blow from the NE and flying at Dry Canyon is not possible.   Ridge soaring is easy at Dry Canyon where flights over one hour are common.
