Runway was bladed, raked and rolled this weekend. All rain ruts from winter have been graded smooth. Some small rocks and stones persist on the native dirt runway surface. Open for use. Not recommended for landing if wet. New runway fence will be completed this week finalizing the airfields separation from the rest of the ranch preventing livestock from entering the runway. Campfires permitted until it gets too dry. Firewood and fire ring are there at the parking apron.
Ted Abbott. Flew in 5- 28 -22 . runway is very well done . smooth & compacted. Will be a great destination for picnic or campout. Also a new latrine. Mr mackie has don a great job on airstrip and when we use it take good care of it. Thanks Mr Mackie. Stinson 108 8 8-50 tires.
2 years agoA few minor bumps and ATV tracks on the runway but nothing our small tires couldn’t handle. Runway is in great condition parking area is also well maintained. There is a porta potty on site that was very useful. We arrived from the east and departed from the east. Even with a minor tailwind on takeoff it made the most sense to utilize the runway that way. If you plan to takeoff toward the west you sure your airplane can handle the rising terrain. Looking forward to going back again soon!
