Memaloose Oregon (25U) on the rim of the Snake River canyon about 30miles East of Enterprise Oregon.We did a flyby on our way to Smiley Creek Id. We did not land because the runway was awash with pools of water and muddy patches. Spectacular drop off as we flew runway 17 which has an appreciable up slope.
