Tieton is a WSDOT (Washington State Department of Transportation) managed airport.
It sits on the shore of Rimrock Lake, nearby Rimrock city and in front of the amazing Kloochman Rock, a jagged, immense, piece of rock rising almost 2000ft high.
Ranger Creek is literally at a stone thrown away and Strom or Swanson make for a quick trip with some fantastic panoramic views over Mt. Rainer, St. Helens and Mt. Adams.
The airport has a long and wide runway making comfortable access even to twin engines and light turboprops.
Take altitute into account as the airport is at 3000ft altitude approximately, hot summer days could create air density concerns to account for.
The area is a popular resort and outdoot activity site as you will see.
A POI has been added for Kloochman Rock on the map.

Many many thanks to BadMed for this precious library.
Looks good. But I noticed some very odd behaviour of the satellite imagery in this area. It's like there are two layers. When close to some rocks like Klochmann Rock, the whole ground textures change. but not just at that rock, in the whole area the imagery changes when you fly over it... very distracting.
But I guess it's not the mod, it's probably Asobo making a mess with the data in this region.

same thing happens in other spots, I never noticed it before around Tieton, perhaps it's some issue related to the latest WU Update.

Thank you for the scenery. As can be seen in this video, the runway is grass-covered, otherwise it's awesome! Maybe you could plant some grass on the runway?

Hey, thank you for the kind words, to be honest I do not know if grass can be added on the surfaces, should check it out.
