We've completed the final grooming on the skirt surrounding the runway, and we planted grass this week. We'll post more photos when the grass comes in. We're hoping to have runway numbers soon! We're cleaning up all around the remaining Phase I lots, and have plans over the next couple of months for landscaping and additional surveys for some back lots. There's a lot going on!

The runway is now complete, and we've been landing planes for a month now. We've been busy grooming the skirt surrounding the runway. Along with a family fly in, we had several guests fly in this week to look at the property.

The airstrip is nearly complete! The final layer will be paved Friday, and it should be ready for landing within a couple of weeks. We'll put up new photos as soon as we have some, and let you know as soon as it is available for landing.

Underground electric utilities and fiber optic cables were laid in early May.

The main entrance road is in great shape.

During the process of the final grading of the runway, which is now almost complete, we discovered a HUGE rock shelf that required extensive blasting in order to bring the runway to grade.
Development

It took more than a few cases of dynamite to prepare the rock for excavation.

When the dust settled we went back into the area to look at our progress.

Runway Grading Making Big Progress
Several weeks of drier than normal weather have resulted in some great progress on getting the runway ready for pavement.
