Description
Located on the shore of the clear water Deadwood Reservoir. Although the setting is beautiful, the approach to this airstrip is over the lake and the runway is quite steep. Once on the ground, power must be maintained to carry your airplane up the hill.  I've heard of aircraft that stopped on the hill and had to have a truck tow them to the top. Also, a road crosses the runway at the top end, so check for vehicles before you land. Parking is located at the top end, and there is at least one set of tie downs (rebar).
Camping
There are multiple campgrounds near the airstrip: Cozy Cove, Howers, Barney's, and Riverside. A simple Forest Service cabin is also available through prior reservation. Contact the Lowman Ranger District for more information (208)259-3361.
Fishing
The lake is said to contain trout, kokanee, Atlantic salmon, and whitefish.
