Link: Alaska Star Eagle River's favorite mountain is again open for business. After five years of strife involving a developer whose plans cut off access to the Mount Baldy parking lot, the municipality finally completed a road extension and other details and declared the new trail head open. Paragliders are as happy as hikers are: "In the past we were parking on the edge of the narrow road, which wasn't always safe," he said. "Now we have a larger parking area, and that gives us the room we need to load and unload our equipment without having to dodge cars," said Phil Smith of Midnight Sun Paragliding. The dispute was eventually resolved with a three-way land swap approved by voters.
