I received my H2 at look mt. in GA in 2003 and have flown a couple different site. I'm tow cert. and feel good about my skill, (but still have a lot to learn). Can anyone point me in the right direction. Any info. would be very appreciated!

Kevin,
You've posted to the right place. Let us know when you get here (or are about to) and we'll try and drag you out to fly.
The hang gliding sites around Tucson aren't very close, nor are they very easy. So, you'll definately want to investigate them out thoroughly, get a good briefing on the days conditions, and discuss a flight plan. Miller Canyon can be a fine H2 site, in the right conditions. (and a trecherous H4 site in the wrong ones).
