That is a very busy fly-in and well worth it. The Goose is one of the single-most amazing feats of man. Before I share my thoughts, I want to hear what others impressions are as they see it for the first time.
There's a cool B&B with a winery just West of there. (Guys traveling with Spouses or Significants take note) You can help make it or just drink it. They used to pick you up. Flying M is another cool spot very close to there. Good food a little Backcountry feel and a libation. Does it get better?
Hey Zane, I love my spell check but why did I have to "learn" it for backcountry?

Come to think of it, I don't think it's a word. It's just a term used by us backwoods folks. The "country" is beyond the suburbs. The "backcountry" is beyond that, where residences become rare. I probably should have called this website "Rural Pilot.org"

Especially since the guys at JC started calling me "city boy."
