South facing ridge a few kilometers east of lake Cowichan. No one comes here for a sled run. If you’re not going to be able to get up and go cross country until lake cowichan then the bomb out landing field is available but not recommended.
Generally considered an afternoon site.
Access. No gate. High clearance. 4x4 recommended.
Difficulty. P3 recommended.
T/O is a short clearing on the side of a logging in road. If you get your take off wrong you get to plow into an overgrown block of stumps and logging refuse.
Near Duncan, Mount Prevost is the most accessible flying on Vancouver Island. In the right conditions is can be useful for low our pilots to get familiar with thermal flying.
There are three take off areas, East, West and Southish (aka “Main”). While the landing field is surrounded by high tension wires the field is enormous and landing in the middle of the field should not be a problem in any wind direction.
Despite the name the air is really quite fresh. And big!
