I often think of how fortunate we are to have been born at a time where personal, recreational, affordable flight is even possible. So many generations before us probably wanted this but there was no way. Above the cloud flights are the best!!!
Totally agree. I came up in the 1980s and 1990s and the Hanglider Trike ultralight was really the best option back then. I always wanted one but I didn't have a way to transport it. With a paramotor, everything I need fits in my Rav-4. I can drive out to an airfield, put it together, and go. Then I can drive home and put it away. No trailer or hangar needed.
This time of year is amazing for foggy ground/stream mornings around my area. I'm REALLY hoping to get up with the sun, some during Christmas week. Lovely very thin layers of fog over low lying areas that are maybe 10-15 feet thick (but not so bad you can't see the ground).
Both you guys are nuts. Getting up in the morning AND during the winter? Whew, thats some dedication! Im a summer nights guy. So tempting to get the snowsuit on, but...

amazing views; well done. Must've been chilly!
It wasn’t too cold- 40’s
That ain't no dream. Beautiful! I was looking for power lines 🤣
Cool video....good music too!
Thank you. Video created on my phone w/ splice app.
Fun flight. Looked amazing. Thanks for filming it.
👍🏼💪🏼🪂
Great LZ above the clouds. Lots of good flights from there I'll bet. Good flying !!
I was only there for a couple days. This LZ is 3 hours away.

Can I ask flying over all the mist what would happen if you had an engine out ?
If my engine failed I was planning on landing on the shore of the lake.
