Anyone been to Mexican Mountan UT, recently or ever? What are the conditions there in general and specifically this time of year? RV-6 with old style (not tight clearance) wheelpants, looking for a cool place to RON in that region.
A suggestion: Reach out to EAA1373 in Delta, CO. Highly skilled UT backcountry pilots in the membership, who take annual trips to Mexican Mountain and can brief on all the nuances.
The usable area looked too short for my comfort. Be sure your spot landing at minimum speed are up to it.
It is in a wilderness study area, so if you break the plane, you will need to helicopter it out. Did once talk to a pilot that had to do that after stalling short of the runway there.
