Thank you Scott!
Great shots and writing! That Gibraltar rock view from the end of the runway is impressive.

Great place, great photos, great trip. Can't thank you enough for sharing. As I say so often lately, "Just WAIT til I get my RV in the air...

Heck, it's only a 1.5 hour flight from ABQ, and the wx is nice, and the kids want to get out of the house..

Thanks for the recommendation Scott.

Thumbs up We are here!!
My wife our 10 year old son and I just got out of the pool here. This place is better than I had imagined! A not to be missed flyin destination. We flew in from Denver in my Mooney MSE and the strip is adequate. Thanks for the report Scott.

Just went for the weekend. It really is a nice place, and the strip was just fine. A fun takeoff over the resort and river valley. Will definately have to return back with the other kids!

BTW, the hangar is open to anyone who lands there.
