Another prime candidate for a work party and a windsock.

First time landing this airstrip and its was in good shape. There are some scrub brush at the north end and south end but in between is pretty clear. I stopped and parked on the south end just before the runway slope increases. There is at least 2500 feet of usable runway. There is a weather station next to the strip but I could not find any markings/ownership information.

Overflew as it was too windy and variable to land. Same condition as last report.

Winter Ridge is in good shape. Some bigger sage vegetation on runway, but mainly on the eastern side. It is pretty easy to avoid the vegetation on the runway. Vegetation height on the edges of the strip is 4 feet or a little taller in some spots. Many wild horses in the area.

Good shape, some old car parts on the runway we removed. Also reinstalled the runway sign for vehicles.
