I am a recent transplant from Minneapolis, so finding new places has been a challenge. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone been flying at the local high schools or colleges. With the recent San Jose Park restrictions and Santa Clara County drone ban policy at county parks, flying space is getting limited.
Curious if any of these have a Drone Policy or "No Trespassing"? May be worth a few calls to find out.
1. West Wind Capital Drive-In off Capital Expressway and Monterey Rd. -Large open air parking lot / drive-in for practice.
2. Gunderson High School - Great fields
3. Communications Hill - Open space with terrain variations
4. Behind Santa Clara Water District buildings on Alameda - open dry swamp and creek over flow.
5. Local Vineyards like Mountain Winery (with permission of course)
6. Leland High School - Great field space
7. West Valley College
8. Lick Observatory / Mount Hamilton -Worth the trip and sights alone.
9. North fields of Leyva Middle School - Great open fields north of school.
Any great spots for practice or great spots for exploration?
