America the Beautiful!

Once again Alpine Airpark celebrated the 4th of July in a way only 46U could do! A great bar-b-que and entertainment, including our very own resident patriotic presentation on the meaning of American Independence and American Exceptionalism and a rousing rendition of This Land is Your Land by our Airpark guitarist and ukulele players. Residents taxied their planes down to the picnic and everything from a jet to this very patriotic 206 made up the flight line. The day ended with a brilliant fireworks display put on by the town of Alpine.

The summer is here and with it lovely long summer days with low humidity and plenty of fun activities. Early morning flights for a tour of the Tetons then to Driggs for Pendl’s coffee and homemade bakery items. The snake river is still very high and the Palisades Reservoir 100% full making for a very beautiful base to final on runway 13 at 46U. Kayaks are out and although the fly fishing due to high water is off to a slow start, August should see some great fishing.
