Located in the heart of the 2.4 million acre Frank Church Wilderness in Central Idaho, Pistol Creek Ranch is a private refuge on the banks of the Middle Fork Of The Salmon River that offers hunting, fishing, rafting, and year-round outdoor recreation.  Access to Pistol Creek Ranch is by charter aircraft, typically out of Boise, McCall, Cascade, Salmon, Challis or Sun Valley.

NOTICES:

• The ICAO code for this airport has changed as of version 1.6.0 of this scenery.  It turns out that ID49 is already associated with the helipad on top of St. Luke's Medical Center in Boise in the real world. To avoid the possibility of future naming conflicts if someone decides to model that helipad, I have changed the ICAO code for Pistol Creek Ranch to 49ID.  Sorry for the confusion.
• Two additional libraries have been added as dependencies in version 1.6.0 of the scenery.  If you have a prior version of this scenery, you may need to download these libraries if you don't already have them installed.

This scenery features:

• a sloped runway, with a curved approach over a steep river bluff
• parking and taxiways similar to the actual airstrip
• improved terraforming and water texturing on the river and pond
• excess trees and vegetation cleared from runway and paths
• hand-built lodge, barns, and corrals, with horses and lots of custom details
• custom animated flag, windmill and windsocks
• local wildlife
• as a bonus, includes an Airport Chart for Pistol Creek Ranch to help you plan your flight here

To get the full benefit of this package, the following object libraries are highly recommended:

• Flag, windmill, and windsocks: Windy Things
• Animated horses: Beekay Pack1
• Static horses: Dave's 3d Animals Library
• People: Dave's 3d People Library
• Fences: Dave's Bush League Legends Library
• Woodpiles: Dave's Crooked Library
• Logs: Mikea.at AssetPack
• Smoke: PBK Effects Library

Also, if you hate seeing big fuel trucks at bush strips like Pistol Creek Ranch, you might try this tweak to the ambient vehicle traffic settings in MSFS: Ambient Traffic Fix

Enjoy!

P.S. Pistol Creek Ranch also appears as ID49 in Western US Backcountry Strips Vol. 1 by phr34k86.  To avoid conflicts, don't load both versions of this airstrip at the same time.
