Comments

Good runway.  Very nice terminal/lounge with bathrooms.  Courtesy car available.  The towns of Nucla and Naturita are close by complete with small town amenities.  Beautiful area.  The airport was not manned during my visit and does not appear to have any services other than self serve fuel.
