Marc Lassaux visited 4 weeks ago in a ICP Savannah S with 21 tires

I landed and took off from the windsock area to the east. As with previous reports runway is better down on that end.

No apparent change from previous reports. Mind the rocks and bumps. Slight side slope. Redtail uses this strip to drop off rafters.
