Two crossing strips. Overgrown. Could be a candidate for rehab and a windsock.
Almost all of both runways look unusable, unless you like to rodeo. I tried to land on the two spots circled in one of the pictures, but could never get slow enough today. Very doable for STOL capable cubs with big tires, I just didn't have it today. I'm guessing both spots were about 250 to 300 feet each, maybe a little more or less. I rolled them several times in all directions and couldn't make it happen. I'll be back. This spot needs some work.
