A parasailor lifts off of a ridge at Yaquina Head as another rides the air currents over the ridge. They sailed back and forth in a large figure 8 path riding the updraft from the wind over the ridge.

The aforementioned parasailors at Yaquina Head. Interesting note from the individual in the foreground, immature eagles will often "check them out" while they are in the air.
