This is a dirt/grass/gravel, sloped, CURVED runway, surrounded by trees, at high altitude (airplanes perform less at high altitude airports)! This is in Elk City, ID. Note I follow the curve of the runway after takeoff to gain airspeed for a moment, then turn to go straight. On a sloped runway, it is usually preferred to takeoff downhill and land uphill for better performance. There are many runways on the mission field similar to this.

No. 3 in a series of a tour of Idaho backcountry airports. This time we visit Warren, Dixie Forest Service, Dixie Town, and Wilson Bar on the Salmon River. Flown July 2013, early in the AM in a 1976 C-185. Pilot Ben and Co-pilot Bart.

Approach and Landing at Thomas Creek, ID - 2U8 - airstrip in the Idaho backcountry with a Super Stinson 108-2. *This is not a standard approach, I was low on final.*

Thomas Creek is a well maintained airstrip on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. If winds winds permit , land up-stream (Rwy 21) and takeoff down-stream (Rwy 03). Great area for camping and hiking with nice trees for shade (also about a 2 mile hike to the hot springs). Hazards include; rising terrain, density altitude, and canyon / mountain weather. Please proceed with caution and make sure the weather is on your side. Also, make sure your piloting skills are top notch prior to landing.
