Flight Park - Draper

I went to the Flight Park in Draper Utah yesterday. It was my first time ever to that location. I have known for years that by Point of the Mountain in Utah that I have seen paragliders.

I had truly so much fun watching these athletes take flight, watching them fly around in the sky. Learning more about the winds and air and canopies and all of the technical skills it takes. The beautiful colors set against a summer sky was magical. Seeing the ease of flight and the athletic ability it takes to fly just made my heart soar. Wanted to share some of the moments below.

“Close your eyes and turn your face into the wind.

Feel it sweep along your skin in an invisible ocean of exultation.

Suddenly, you know you are alive.”
