ELK MEADOWS, ID

This is a closed airstrip.  It is included for historic and possible emergency purposes only.  Although it may have emergency value,  the condition is entirely unknown and is likely in very bad.

Located near several trail systems, the USFS built this airstrip in 1937 and then abandoned it in 1957.

From the 1971 Idaho Airport Facilities Directory:
"Dangerous field.  Recommended for emergency use only to inexperienced pilots.  Soft, rough, tall grass, no maintenance.  Normal rule of good practices would prompt all pilot to exclude this field from planning except in emergencies.  No use should be considered without dual instruction.  Early morning operation with high altitude performance technique a must."
