Rustic strip, probably 800' long. Best landing is towards the west, as the strip goes uphill to the west. Narrow strip with cedars on both sides. Small parking area at the western edge of the strip on the edge of the cliff, but it was big enough for our 3 planes. Nice campsite with a fire ring tucked in the trees at the on the north end of the runway, just above the cliff. Old uranium mining paraphernalia and some old mine shafts within 200 yards of the strip which were cool to explore. Beautiful view down into Gateway Canyon.
Threshold from the east marked with logs on both sides: touching down prior is very rough. Off-camber landing area, rolling, and some small foliage. A fun and challenging strip. I would venture to say for most one-way T/O to the east(downhill)
