@ally99:
A couple of suggestions to your list:
If you're going to make it all the way to Manning Park on the Pacific Trail hike; may I suggest you make arrangements to add on the Pacific Coast Trail too!

Also; you might consider Paragliding rather than Hangliding. The downside of Hangliding is the size of the hardware: I carry my Paraglider on my back on my motorcycle. A hanglider has a tube over 10 feet long so requires a roof rack on a car at the very least! As to the actual flying: Hangliding is fantastic but I do prefer the flying of a Paraglider. Both can be and should be first experienced via tandem flights.
