    Description

    One-way strip deep in the Main Salmon Canyon.  Mackay Bar (private but open) 2 miles downriver.  Non-standard pattern.  Final is flown river left, with the runway out of sight until short final.  Beware of wheel traffic using the runway. 

     Good camp spots south of the strip, both at the East end and most of the way to the West end.  Water from nearby creeks or river.

      Approach and Landing at Wilson Bar, ID - ID76 - airstrip in the Idaho backcountry with my Super Stinson 108-2.

      Wilson Bar is a wonderful short airstrip right off the Salmon River. Land down-stream (Rwy 24) and takeoff upstream (Rwy 06). Also, be sure not to mistake this for Mackay Bar as they are only 2 miles apart. Hazards include; no go around, small rocks on Rwy 06 end, trees, 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.
