Pre-takeoff checklist
I haven't been there in years, we used to use it as an alternate for Eagle.
Big improvements were made there maybe 10 years ago now. The rumor was that an operator of Gulfstreams based at Aspen paid for the runway extension and ILS improvements.
There used to be a nice golf course north of the interstate near Rifle.

We go there quite a bit. Last time was about a week and a half ago. What do you want to know about it? I think the only FBO is Atlantic now.

New runway this summer, wasn't it? I forget. It was closed for a while. Don't really go there.

Yes, new runway, although not any longer. Taxiway now goes the full length.
