Many directions from our home field have some pretty unlandable areas.
That's what soaring in much of Arizona is like. Several pilots have
flown over the Tuba City area and into Colorado and I have driven the
route. There are some strips and fields as well as roads, but even
some of the rough terrain could be landed on.

I started my cross-country soaring in a flat area with large
agricultural fields in every direction, so just about anywhere else
looks scary to me by comparison.

Steve's file is now on OLC - just short of 600 km.
