Pics from 3/11/05 ...If you decide to land here put it right on the centerline and keep it there. The RW is 50 ft wide paved with noticeable slope. There are some low berms along the side but there are also runway lights separated by approximately 22 paces. Does not look too appealing for an open-class ship but others might consider it especially the north end of the runway.

From google earth measurements on the N-S runway there are about 75 feet between the closest spaced trees/bushes and the strip measures about 1300 feet. The E-W runway measures about 750 feet x 65 feet between trees. Flew over it 11/2020. Looks clear and smooth. We have approval from the owner to land there. The access gate from the north is closed but not locked. UM

However there appears to be an open area with little ground vegetation that might provide a reasonable outlanding location. Access is via dirt roads so 4-wheel drive vehicle would likely be necessary.

Note elevation. Looks like shrubs are growing near the middle of the strip. It's easy to pick out the road which is on the south side of the strip. Watch out for three towers and power lines on east side. 4/1/2011 3R: The CC strip located on the SW side of I-40 and US 285 can be identified by the hangar visible on the SE end. There is a gate for access off US 285 and it is not locked so there is no problem with car and trailer access. The old dirt runway is bumpy but landable. The best section of the strip is the western 2/3rds so if landing it is recommended that you use that section as it is wide open and fairly level. Please be aware that the eastern 1/3 of the strip rises slightly to the east and is rougher than the western 2/3rds of the strip. Also please note that the winds at CC can be very strong and also be alert for the large 422 foot towers to the south of the field. 4/26/08 UX: I visited this strip today. You can see it from the exit off of eastbound I40. This is where the photo was taken from. The gate to get into the area is currently locked with some basic wire. People are not supposed to go in there but would be no problem to go in with trailer as long as there is no lock installed. The strip itself is getting pretty darn faint but at least it's a flat spot to put down on. BEWARE OF ALL THE TOWERS!!! (and guy lines) there are several nearby. Very dangerous actually. Best option is a right hand pattern for runway 26. Left pattern for 26 has you going around and in between the towers.

WATCH for powerlines near house! B.Carlton 3-10-08 Mike & Janet Crosby have a pair of dirt strips just south of Abo (southwest of Mountainair). The N/S runway is 5000' long the E/W runway is 2500' long. Laurie and I drove out there Sunday. Both strips are in good shape. A couple of trees are a bit close but should be enough room for 15m easily. Look for the place where the railroad crosses highway 60 (east of Abo Pass). Follow county 125 south just past the transwestern pipelines. There is also a 50 X 60 hangar (brown in color so it's a bit hard to find). It is north of the escarpment and the restricted area.

From google earth the 1st third of the runway (if landing to the west) measures about 550 feet long. There are about 70 feet between bushes/pinon trees. A bit narrower maybe 60 feet on the remaining 700 feet. The N-S rwy measures about 1400 feet. Some low bushes there perhaps less than 50 feet in width not sure I would try it unless the wind was howling. Would land at Gallete on E-W rwy on a 15m glider. Better than most everything in that area other than KSAF. Would not attempt on an open class glider. 4/2/2011 UX&EX Appears to now be abandoned. Surface looks rather rough. Of the two runways the NW runway looks the best. This feels like a pretty short runway don't land long!

The road to the house is easier to see than the runway which is to the NW of the road. Theest pictures 5 & 6 were taken November 2020 by 9F. Remarks: There is no fence surrounding the strip. Retrieve should be a piece of cake. There are powerlines south of the the strip. These are well marked with orange balloons. There is a ditch at the southern end of the strip almost by the road (20B) There is a barbwire fence on the western boundary of the property. The strip seems to have a fair amount of Cholla cactus. Previous posts: 4/2/2011 EX&UX Watch the powerlines along the road on the south. See photos. Looks landable from the air. From walking it we know it'll be a rough landing though. Buckle up tight! 2/28/09 by 3R Private Strip - NE/SW strip is approx 5.5 miles ENE of Stanley and US 41. Runway is overgrown with grasses and is in fair condition. Runway though a bit rough appears to be landable. Road access is excellent. Note: SW end of runway (near dirt road) is bordered by telephone lines running E-W. 4/26/08 UX Private. This NE/SW dirt strip is said to be in poor condition. Nearby pasture to the west is likely an equally good landing option.

There is now a fence on the north side of the road. From the center of road to fence on north side is 9 paces. The berm is about 2 feet high. Land on south side of road or alongside the road. Watch out for cacti most will pass under the wing. Some will cause a ground loop. Update Feb 2008 UX: I walked this road. Personally I will not plan on using it anymore due to the burms that have formed at the sides due to grading the road (a Discus 2 with no x-wind could do it). However the pastures on either side are still relatively nice and the access to this point is easy. It's also still a nice distinct feature visible from the air out in the middle of nowhere so we keep it as a turnpoint. Brian's Feb 2008 comments are still valid. Fields north and south of the road are potential landing sites with no fences (26 Feb 09). Watch out for cattle! 3R&HL 2/26/09

The southern strip has a red hangar on the west end and is easier to see. The northern strip is longer and smoother 26/08 orientation. Best to land on the east end of northern strip. There is no cell phone coverage here. This report includes information on both Tierra de Dios North and Tierra de Dios South. Tierra de Dios North is the airstrip depicted on the sectional chart and is part of the Tierra de Dios real estate development. The development despite underground utilities and a 4 bay fire station does not appear to be doing well and the airstrip has not been maintained. Tierra de Dios South is a private strip ½ mile south of Tierra de Dios North owned by Beth Weitz and Jim Harper. Both strips are friendly to glider pilots and have good access for trailer retrieves. There is no dependable cell phone coverage at either site. Owners have landlines and would allow use if they are present. I visited both sites on 6/27/2020. From the airport at Moriarty my driving time was one hour twenty minutes. The route I used approaches from the south and consists of I-40 to Clines Corners 285 to CR 34(approx 15.5mi) to right turn on CR B35A(approx 1.7mi) to left turn on CR B32C(approx 1.3mi) to left turn on to Tierra de Dios Road(marked by arched entrance with sign) following this road approximately 1/2 mile one finds Clay Hill Road which is marked by a sign. A right turn on Clay Hill Road will take you to Tierra de Dios South. Continuing on a short distance on Tierra de Dios Road brings you to an unmarked right turn that will take you to Tierra de Dios North. This route is significantly shorter than the approach from the North and consists of paved gravel and dirt roads. Both routes are the same starting with CR B35A. All were in good shape the day I travelled. The gate leading to Tierra de Dios South is unlocked see picture but please keep it closed there are burros on the property.
