Short and a hill is at one end of the strip. You won't find anything official anywhere. If you want to find out about boondock runways in the west checkout alta-research web site which has books for sale with all the hidden runways and such in the west. http://www.casco.net/alta/home.htm Runway is gravel and on a slope and only experienced gravel pilots should land IMHO but lots do! Remember it gets hot in the afternoon and sometimes the runway is not long enough if you are heavy. Not a good thing. Seriously check it out before trying unless you know what you are doing. Windsock and tie downs at north end of runway. Disclaimer: The guy that wrote these books is my friend and long term Saline guy and first rate pilot
