      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.

      "A nice strip although it was rough the last time I was in there. It is surrounded by high terrain. Be careful as you approach and depart over the lake. Downdrafts have turn more than one plane into a submarine."
