Where are the Roan Cliffs and Tepee Creek strips? I don't see them listed in the shortfield.com database.

Roan is 5-6 miles NW of Rifle on the mesa. Easy to find in Google. It's a nice spot, and popular for epic evening glass-offs for paragliding and hang gliding as well.

May I ask for lat/long? I don't see anything obvious in the sat pictures on google - the needle in a haystack is hard to see.
Any issues with posting the location in the shortfield database? I'm astounded at how few (or none) actual backcountry strips there are in Colorado open to the public. There's only 4-5 entries in the whole state - and they are either private or a public use airport that happens to have grass/turf/gravel runway.

Any word on the management plan? What are the next milestones we should be looking forward to?
