Went into here for the first time in my Vision jet. RWY 35 was a big difficulty. You have terrain above you on both sides on the final which did not leave any space for mistake. It's was also a short runway for the VJ but had ample room to stop.

Runway 17 steep departure was necessary to clear the mountain. Flew there with a C172P and did not have much margin with short field take off. Be advised if winds favor that runway.
