Gravelly Valley Airport, 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.

- 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

- View is down runway and to the north.42E is seen departing in the best direction toward the lake. Keep in mind that prop damage (with some tricycle planes) is possible due to gravel runway. - by S B J

- View is from the south to the north-northwest and Hull Mt with its winter covering of snow. This picture shows why for some aircraft, it is a one way strip. Good size hill to climb over. - by S B J
