Johnson Creek, ID
Is this one of the one-way strips in the wilderness area? I think I've been
there, years ago.
Harvey,
Johnson Creek is posted as one-way (land 17 takeoff 35). There's a
tall hill at the end of 17 with a house on top. Landing on 35 is not
very difficult, but is discouraged to keep the noise over the house to
a minimum.
The airport is not in the wilderness, but it's close to the River of
No Return Wilderness area. If you click on the top link in my post
above, it the second one down on the right. Great place to camp with
showers, a phone, and courtesy vans that you can rent for about 8
bucks to visit the town of Yellowpine (5 miles away on a gravel road).
Caretakers Gene and Cody maintain the runway and campgrounds like it
was their own. Well worth a visit.
