ASPEN, Colo. (AP) - Paragliders have agreed to a no-fly zone in Aspen after a crane operator was spooked at a hospital construction site.
Project spokesman Frank Goldsmith says the city is worried that the crane operator might get startled again and spin the crane, endangering gliders and construction workers.
According to the Aspen Daily News paragliders have a landing zone near the hospital.
