A real quick video of a trip I took last year from Las Vegas to Pearce Ferry Arizona. Several of you suggested airstrips to visit that are close to my base of North Las Vegas. I have a 1972 Cessna 150L and it's okay during the the cooler months. This trip was an exploratory trip, as we did not land. I suppose if I had a real bush plane I would have. Strip condition was a bit unused and rough. Many tumble weeds growing. The views were spectacular and breathtaking.

Nice video! Thanks for posting.

That strip looks like it is graded occasionally. Prairie Dog holes are hard to see. Best to touchdown as slow as possible, stay off brakes, and keep nose wheel off as long as possible. Are tumble weeds growing on entire length of both runways?

If narrower runway is the road, is it maintained?

Thank You!

Back in the late 80's, when I was flying for Lake Powell Air/Scenic Airlines, we would do the occasional river runner pick up there at Pierce Ferry. Usually in 207's, I had a Piper Chieftain trip in and out of there once.
Just a little south is Mead View. There are three diagonal roads in town and we would land on the middle one (Stillwater Drive). Only a couple of times for that one.
That job was a blast!!
