Clandestine airstrip found near Puerto Peñasco

A clandestine airstrip was found 22 miles south of Puerto Peñasco in Sonora state, authorities said. The 200 meter long and 15-meter wide airstrip appeared to have been graded with heavy equipment. No one was arrested. The airstrip was made unusable Saturday by crossing it with ditches, officials said. Story, El Mexicano.

No, I never noticed the airstrip in lobos... and unless they layout the roads like a serpent a good pilot could land on just about any stretch of road down that way...

Good landing is just a controlled crash...
