I love this peak.. There is an old torn up American Flag that has been there forever.. The winds usually favor me just hovering next to it, but they were a bit calm today, but I made a few slow passes at it... It's such a great spot... Really high and steep all around.

That's a cool little hill. The distortion from your lens is so strong that it's hard to get a good feel for what the surrounding terrain looks like, but it appears to be some good looking country. That sure does a good job of showing the open air type of flying, that is what makes flying Gyro's so different from flying in a fiwed wing cabin class aircraft. Very Cool!!!
