Dormant airstrip with vegetation overgrowth. Marginably useable.

I spent a good 30 minutes trying to land this, but I would consider it unusable without work. There are some gotcha bushes and trees that can easily punch holes in your fabric.

Scouted Castle Creek Airstrip and like Wendy's previous report, I think with a little cleanup it could be usable. It is close to U96 about 5SM SE.

Castle Creek Airstrip sits atop a mesa, about 5 miles from Cal Black Airport. The airstrip is pretty close to, but above and out of view, from paved Highway 276. Didn’t land, but it looks like there is enough sparse vegetation that would need to be cleaned up to make the airstrip useable. The views from the mesa where the airstrip sits are incredible.
