Touchdown! Greaser!
Posting here so as to avoid jacking Bob's awesome thread too much...
Might have? Oh no, I *did*, no doubt about it. It's one thing to see a beautiful mountain from the highway that runs next to it - It's entirely another thing to have that mountain 20 feet off your wingtip and use it to give you extra lift. I love flying because it's a challenge, and mountain flying and landing at backcountry airstrips not only adds to the challenge, it allows you to see some of the most beautiful sights possible.
I think I need to move to Idaho or Oregon or somewhere out there simply so I can do more of it. MUCH more!
Permanently, hopelessly addicted.
Kent, Yes if you had traveled east from Landmark for 10 minutes of so you would have been to Sulphur Creek. I think you might have gotten the bug for flying in the back country on your short training session there.
