Large patches of runway now free of snow. \:D/

Who's going to be the first to land?

9:00 AM on Tuesday, the 14th and there is an aircraft at JC. I would think that it would be pretty soft/mushy with the snow having just melted off in the last couple of days.

The webcam just refreshed and he is gone. I was going to save the pic and post it. Blue and white 180/185.

Not soft - tires just as clean coming out as going in.

Was that you! Lucky...looks like you fixed the cone that was lying on its side too!

And no problem! There are a few other strips in ID that have that!
