I sent these earlier, but I wanted to add them to this topic:

Here are the coordinates for a site we call "Horse Canyon".
It's a non-USHPA site:
32.774541, -116.476735

Here are more accurate coordinates for Dockweiler:
33.920306,-118.430755

Here are the coordinates for "Little Black Mountain":
32.987940,-117.122335
It's mostly PG these days because the LZ has shrunk.

Torrey Launch:
32.890333,-117.251934

Launches at Lake Elsinore:
33.629455,-117.371057
33.638409,-117.387234

Small LZ at Horse Canyon:
32.760322,-116.480929

Logan,
There are sites listed on the “Look mom no USHPA” thread here at the US Hawks website.
Also in my file cabinet I have a pamphlet type listings of flying sites around the USA. It was compiled by
someone when we were called USHGA. If there is no copyright I can take iPhone pictures when I can squeeze in between the renovation workers at my house. Right now I’m parked under a shade tree at “SUBWAY” waiting for the shellack fumes to subside.
EDIT: Look Ma, No USHPA

So far I have about 100 USHPA free sites, and I am getting info on more semi-regularly. If anyone wants to help me enter information into the forum or post pins; I would appreciate the assistance, especially if you have first-hand knowledge. If you have issues creating a login, I would also appreciate that info as apparently working on the SSL has created some problems.

Of course, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Just yesterday Jack announced his "new" site guide:

I reviewed a bunch of site guides, including the old WIKI site guide to see what fields people found valuable.
Here is a BETA for the new HG site guide form submission.

PLEASE REVIEW the fields I have made available, and sanity check me.
Which should I drop? ( simpler is better )
Which should I add?

What options did I miss PER FIELD?

Any other feedback appreciated.
