Salida/Harriett Alexander Field Pilot Reviews:
Leander A.
August 20, 2025Good airport with a scenic valley landing! The manager was very helpful and arranged a car for our trip. Highly suggest! Cirrus
Brian N.
June 8, 2025Likely the most welcoming airport around. Affordable fuel, courtesy cars, kind manager and dogs, and Shavano aviation gave us an oil change and o2 refill without difficulty.

March 31, 2025I stopped in twice on a windy Wednesday. Simple overhead approach from the north, just be careful of the unlit stack NE of the field if you fly big patterns or depart that direction. Density altitude (>9,000' in the afternoon) did not impact my departure off 24, but the sink from the local mountain winds did. Turning north corrected it. Fine facilities and inexpensive gas with a modern card reader.
