Wilson Bar to Big Creek

Wilson Bar Never gets Old

I thought I would post a video showing a maximum performance departure from Johnson Creek under lower density altitude conditions. My most popular video on this channel nearing 1 million views shows the exact opposite conditions with very high density altitude in a loaded Bonanza. The 180 was loaded with 2 full size adults and about 42 gallons of fuel. We were likely about 250 lbs under max gro...

Great flight over the Sawtooths from Upper Loon Creek to Atlanta. Snow still on the peaks but unseasonably warm in Idaho for early June.

Local summer flying in Pacific Northwest. These strips are all private uphill strips. Really beautiful locations. Mark Kimbrall's Aircraft carrier is one of the tougher strips I fly into - the runway is about 850 feet long but only about 600 feet is usable due to some very narrow trees on the south end of the strip. Dick was kind enough to shoot some videos of me the summer. Thought I would pos...

Here is an example of a failed downstream landing with a go around and successful upstream landing. I didn't want to make a lot of noise in the canyon with another attempt. The downstream landing has the advantage of the go around but is a much steeper approach. You can see me trying to bleed of speed on the approach with S turns. I almost touched down but elected not to use hard braking in the...

Hoodoo Meadows is an old airport that was last reportedly used in 1985. It was recently brought back to life through efforts of the IAA (Idaho Aviation Association), RAF (Recreational Aviation Foundation), Idaho Fish and Game, and the Idaho Transportation Department. The strip enables access to the Yellowjacket Mountains. It sits at an elevation of nearly 8300 feet and is only 2200 feet in leng...

Flight upstream back to Big Creek.

Great weekend in Idaho for the Skywagon Fly-in. Instead of camping I slummed it at the Big Creek Lodge. Supports the IAA and they will treat you like family.

C170 flies back to Johnson Creek from Mahoney Creek after a great morning flying down the Middle Fork.

Great weekend camping at Johnson Creek with friends. Flying the " Bee " Sonia's powder puff C170 with a O300D. Not the power of the 180 but still a very capable Idaho Backcountry airplane and a lot of fun.
