Crossed one off the bucket list at Grand Canyon West

I know we all have those airports where we’d say, “it’d be cool to fly here.” I was lucky enough to make it to one of mine over the weekend at Grand Canyon West (1G4). It sits on a reservation a couple hundred yards from the edge & makes for the most scenic pattern I’ve ever flown & best of all.... NO LANDING FEE! Anybody else who’s thought of this one of their buckets spots, I highly recommend. Here’s some pics from the pattern. & I also managed to do a fly by of the Hoover Dam en-route to my fuel stop at KHND.
 
Grand Canyon Bar Ten on the north side is fun. One of the most challenging paved public use airports in AZ. Normally in to the north and out to the south with no go around below around 300’.
