Land with skis on Cresent Lake State, OR (5S2) ?

Does anyone have advise on ski ops at Cresent Lake State Airport, Oregon?

Personnel at KONP said its covered with snow and useable? My information on this subject is nil. :?:

What's stopping you? Any big X's on the tarmac? It's closed for wheel pilots.....go for it!

I'm also sure if one looked hard enough, a "permission " refusing ass covering gov type could be found. You don't need permission, you have skis, right?

Mr.Courierguy,

Thank you. I am flying to Idaho next week for R/R. Do have you have any recommendations for Skiplane flying there. Something not to challenging?

Between Afton and Pocatello, lots of wide open spaces. Great breakfast site a minute walk from the Afton airport BTW. Pretty much anywhere there is snow and no people, and that takes in a lot of country around here.
