Gravelly Valley Airport (1Q5) - Camping at Lake Pillsbury,Ca in 1992. The wonderful C172 made this (bring Honda) possible.There are a lot of miles of dirt road to explore around the lake and to the top of Mt Hull.

  • Gravelly Valley Airport (1Q5) - N9078E at the north end of runway.View is to the SW, down the runway and to the lake. While not an absolute one way strip, it is best to take off toward the lake as most pilots do. - by S B J by S B J
  • Gravelly Valley Airport (1Q5) - Looking at Gravelly Valley airport from the north to the south.The top of Hull Mt.(6873 feet) is seen on the right.The elevation of 1Q5 is 1900 feet. The fire watch building burned down in 1992. - by S B J by S B J
  • Gravelly Valley Airport (1Q5) - 932 at 1Q5 with view down the runway and to the north. For planes like 932 ( for me ) it was a two way strip, but for a heavy C172 it is definitely one way only, at least for takeoff . The snow is on Hull Mt. which is 6873 feet. - by S B J by S B J
  • Gravelly Valley Airport (1Q5) - N9078E at Gravelly Valley around 1977-78 and showing a large hangar that was once there. It was gone by the mid 80s. Uncertain if it was a private hangar or not as 1Q5 was an active air tanker base ( during fire season ) at one time. - by S B J by S B J
