Description
Welcome to Nugget Creek Cabin!
(This place is a real place: 59.287706, -136.177766)
The privately owned cabin is located right at the bank of the Tsirku River roughly 30 miles west of Haines deep in the mountains. It's the last landing site before the Tsirku Glacier head further up the valley. If you want to get away from the crowds, enjoying untouched wilderness for miles and are into hunting and fishing this is the right spot for you - provided that you can handle its airstrip which is only roughly 545 feet long and not much wider than the wingspan of a Kitfox or Piper Cub.
Don't think that you can get your weekendflyer Cessna in and out of there without major problems.
The airstrip sits on a slightly elevated small river bank with water filled washes on both sides - including several feet of terrain drop.
If you really need, the airstrip extends a few feet towards the parking area and the crossing to the cabin - however, this part is actually not meant for take-offs and landings and debris and obstacles can occur.
The entire airstrip area is extremely small, so handle your aircraft operations with care.

Glacier Point Airstrip, 4AA5, Alaska, USA
Glacier Point is located approx. 22nm south of Skagway and 56nm north of Juneau. The closest settlement/town is Haines, which is located 8nm to the north across the Chilkat Inlet. Despite its remoteness, it's one of the most popular sightseeing sites in the Haines/Skagway area, due its easy access to the Davidson Glacier which terminates only 2nm to the west.

Takhin River Airstrip, 4AA4, Alaska, USA
This airstrip is an old half abandoned and partially overgrown airstrip on the right bank of the Takhin River in the Takhinsha Mountains. Half way between Haines and the Tsirku Glacier, it presumably once served as entry and drop off point for hunters, researchers and others who needed to access the wilderness. It has seen some recent interest and activity by some local bush pilots and hunters and has been cleared of the worst, however, this is a non-maintained and rarely used airstrip, so be cautious.

put this in red...i missed it...."You need the Bush & Backcountry Libary for this scenery to work: https://flightsim.to/file/43061/bush-backcountry-library"

This dependency is stated in the text, in the dependencies tab and upon downloading the scenery when the download pop-up shows up and since noone else seem to overlook these, I don't see the need to colorize the text.

Hello Wookie042,
Thank you very much for your efforts creating these these wonderful, very impressively designed sceneries in the hinterland. Your bush strips are of a very high quality and give the backcountry pilots a cosy and homely feeling.
- Nugget Creek/4AA3 is ok now (I had this water problem, too)
Scenery equipment with objects is just right: as much as necessary, but as little as possible - where is nothing, there doesn't have to be anything.

Thanks for letting me know! First, I couldn't reproduce the error on my side, so I'm happy that updating the terraforming seems to have helped!

I have the Orbx Alaska mesh but my runway is under a very shallow amount of water.

That has unfortunately nothing to do with the Orbx mesh but with Asobo once again fucking up things with the latest WU/SU in regards to water exclusion polygons. I may or may not fix it, because I value my time a lot more than running behind AS to fix their introduced bugs again and again.
