Might have? Oh no, I *did*, no doubt about it. It's one thing to see a beautiful mountain from the highway that runs next to it - It's entirely another thing to have that mountain 20 feet off your wingtip and use it to give you extra lift. I love flying because it's a challenge, and mountain flying and landing at backcountry airstrips not only adds to the challenge, it allows you to see some of the most beautiful sights possible.
I think I need to move to Idaho or Oregon or somewhere out there simply so I can do more of it. MUCH more!![Yes :yes: :yes:](/community/styles/poa/poa_smilies/yes.gif)
