Slope Soaring Near Birmingham

We have a slope here in Birmingham, AL, but only for NW winds or something very close. It is a cleared off mountain top that homes are being built on. Construction presently stopped due to some fill dirt settling and some cracks have resulted. So, we can fly for a while. The name of the site is The Ledges of Weatherly and is south of Birmingham, in the Pelham area.
We don't get much NW, mostly when we have a weather change. Usually pretty turbulent so we fly mostly foamies. Jim Larkin
