Nicholas Maughan visited 3 years ago in a RANS S-20 with 6.00X6 Mains and 5x6.00 Nose wheel tires

Runway had some ruts from OHVs doing donuts, but they were not bad, the rest of the runway was great, windsock is pretty beat up. Hot and high DA during my visit, was glad that wind favored downhill takeoff.

Gordon Eldredge visited 3 years ago in a C185 with 8.50 mains, 5.5 tailwheel. tires

The previous reports are accurate and very helpful. Runway 15 slopes uphill and therefore the favored runway for landing. I would add that a swell exists at the touchdown area of runway 15 so plan the touchdown a couple hundred feet from the end of runway 15 and avoid the surprise bump. The airport is a worthy stop having an awesome view from the runway.

Runway is still in good condition. However on the south end someone did donuts on the runway leaving small ruts. They weren’t to deep but noticeable while taxiing.
