    Default Great Salt Lake North Shore

    I thought your eyes might need some flying adventure photos to gaze at so I flew to one of the remote airstrips on the north shore of the Salt Lake, UT today. The strip is a little rutted but landable:

    Hey Sky Pirate,
    You DID notice those! Ha! I hit them on take off. By the way, what are you doing up at this time of night? Don't you have an appointment with a coffee cup in a few hours?

    DF4,
    There was a large hole in the runway that you can't see in the photo, so I couldn't use about 1/3 of the strip. Road apples are now road apple pie.

    Here's the vid if you want to fly along:

    If you act quickly before the data expires, you can also click on the "SkySteve's Spotpage" below my signature line to see the flight path. Isn't all this technology neat?
