Idaho – Rivers and Mountains - 2 (June 13)

Idaho – Rivers and Mountains - 2

Part 2 of the Rivers and Mountains Route begins at Hoodoo Meadows (4D2) and follows a zig-zag route that includes 17 bush strips and fire towers on both sides of the Middle Fork of the Salmon and ends at Sulphur Creek Ranch (ID74).

The final section heads south into the Boise National Forest, features 9 bush strips, and ends at Pine (1U9).

The PDF included in the flight plan archive contains links to 36 freeware airport downloads and 5 payware scenery options for Idaho bush strips.  You may already have many of these strips, but quite a few new strips have been added in the last six months, and a number of airports have be updated for 2024 compatibility, so it is worth checking and updating your Idaho collection.

 This tour was designed for a capable bush plane. The Cessna C-185 Skywagon is a strong backcountry option, but I will be flying the default Zlin Savage Norden in the Got Friendss Classic Blue Bolt livery (link below) because of its excellent STOL performance. Its integrated G3X avionics are ideal for bush flying, since all airports in the scenery are recognized and imported correctly, so no external navigator is needed.
