Information from pirep.io:
Description: This is basically a USFS airstrip that is well-maintained, but useful only in the summer. During the winter months the runway is not plowed and you can assume it will be snow-covered from November through as late as May. In summer you'll find many fire-fighting ops staging out of Blue Canyon so be aware that it could get busy. While it's right next to I-80, it's a couple miles from the Nyack offramp so it effectively has "no services." That also means no restroom, pilot lounge, etc.
Transient Parking: Transient parking is on the center of the field, east side by the beacon. No tiedowns are provided, but if you have ropes/chains of your own you can leverage the ground attachments.

Comments from pilots:
- There is no webcam for Blue Canyon, but CA DoT (CalTrans) has one on I-80 very close to the field, to give you an accurate sense of current weather conditions in the area. It’s listed here: https://cwwp2.dot.ca.gov/vm/loc/d3/hwy80atwhitmoregrade.htm (2023-10-26, 1 helpful)
