A very nice friendly GA field, just north of Delta, CO. The runway is hard to spot from the air, so look for the golf course which is the only green thing around! Land rwy 3 if the winds allow; it has a nice up-slope. Plenty of available parking, and reasonably priced self-serve fuel ($5.49/gal as of 9/27)
