    • Dixie Town, ID - Landing ( Idaho backountry ) HD

      Dixie Town, ID - Landing ( Idaho backountry ) HD

      Approach and Landing at Dixie Town, ID - airstrip in the Idaho backcountry with a Super Stinson 108-2.

      Dixie Town is a wonderful place to drop in and enjoy the great people (the lodge has a great breakfast too). If winds allow, land Rwy 35 and takeoff Rwy 17 (I had about a 10kt tailwind on this landing). Also, Dixie USFS is about 4 miles to the SW.. 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.

      Shearer USFS - 2U5 - Approach and Landing (Idaho backountry) HD

      Landing at USFS Shearer (2U5) airstrip in the Idaho backcountry with a Super Stinson 108-2.

      This is a one way in and one way out - no go around airstrip that is 2000ft long by 15ft wide. Please proceed with caution and make sure the weather is on your side (downdrafts are common mid day). Amazing area, very remote, and lots of wildlife. Also, make sure your piloting skills are top notch, seek qualified backcountry and mountain flying instruction.

      Also, please support the IAA and the RAF, as they aid in keeping these beautiful places open to backcountry pilots.

      Filmed with a Drift HD camera at mypov360.
