in a RANS S-20
with 6.00X6 Mains and 5X6.00 Nose Wheel tires
My first dirt strip. It was smoother than I expected, the surface is a little soft and rutted on the approach end of runway 11. The north south runway gets less use and has more low height vegetation growing on it, but looks very usable.
Runway in good condition although there is a low/soft spot developing near west end. Could potentially be a wet/muddy spot after a significant rain event. The entire area is being devastated by Tent Caterpillars. They were even floating down the river by the thousands... We had to move our tent to out in the open, away from being under any trees. Don’t bother bringing a hammock !!
