After landing at a strip in Hells Canyon last weekend I discovered a broken bolt in the tailwheel spring attach bracket. Here is a picture of my Back country fix. First I wrapped the spring bracket with steel wire then as a backup I used parachute cord. The AN3 broke just beyond the grip length in the threads. AN3-12A is the origional bolt length. AN3-13A would be a better solution. Flew home and landed with the tailwheel up.
