Landing & Takeoff at Weatherby.

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.
