Picture of the Day: Camping, but not roughing it
Shawn Crosgrove submitted this photo taken by his son Garrett and note: “Each year my parents and siblings go camping near the Landmark Airport (0U0) to help my parents gather firewood from the large stands of dead lodge-pole pine trees. My son and I flew up from South Valley Regional Airport (U42) to help cut and load fire wood. The airplane is a 1958 Cessna 182A (N4853D) owned by my father Ralph Crosgrove since 1978. The ‘original’ Black & Turquoise on white paint lends itself the this rustic background. This photo was taken at dusk after a quick trip to Cascade to get the motorhomes DirectTV receiver code updated so we could watch the Boise State University football game. (Just because we’re camping doesn’t mean we’re roughing it.) The airport tie-downs are down a small incline west of the runway next to a camping area surrounded by tall pine. This is a nice backcountry airport to visit directly south of the famous Johnson Creek Airport, minus the grassy meadow runway.”

Picture of the Day: His first airplane ride
Bob Bement submitted this photo and note: “This little guy just loves airplanes. His dad says that he always wants to come out and see the airplanes. They live close to the airport and when he hears one start up he wants to come and see it. When I found out about the 3 year old with a passion for airplanes, I asked them to go for a ride in an airplane. I think he loved it, even if he had trouble seeing out, even sitting on a booster seat. I love to give first flights.”
Picture of the Day: Alaska Fall Sunset on the shores of Cook Inlet
Tom Rollman submitted this photo and note: “This is my 1955 170B tied down on our family’s private strip on the east side of Cook Inlet north of Nikiski, Alaska. The strip is just above the tide line and below the bluff. It provides access to our cabins via an hour flight from Anchorage vs. the old five hour drive. This picture was taken during a moose hunting trip.
