MEXICAN MOUNTAIN, UT

The OK3 AIR Cessna 185 landing on the Mexican Mountain airstrip in the San Rafael Swell in southern Utah.

Low pass and landing to the east from Mexican Mountain, UT airstrip along the San Rafael River in the Utah back country with my Super Stinson 108-2.

This is a beautiful airstrip on the San Rafael River - soft sand on the far east end, but overall in great condition year round. No facilities. Hazards including soft sand, narrow runway, tall trees on both sides, density altitude, and canyon / mountain weather, windshear. Please proceed with caution and make sure the weather is on your side. Also, make sure your piloting skills are top notch, planes have crashed at airstrips such as this one.

Also, please support the Recreations Aviation Foundation ( RAF ) and the Utah Backcountry Pilots Association ( UBCP ).

The Utah Backcountry Pilots Assn and Recreational Aviation Foundation work hard to keep wonderful places like this open and in pristine shape. Many thanks for their support.
