Hueso Uno Airport

No official reason for closure has been documented. The closure is almost certainly due to economic factors and abandonment. Small, private airstrips like this ('aeropistas') are typically built to serve a specific, localized purpose, such as a large ranch, a mining exploration site, or an agricultural operation. When the primary business activity ceases or is no longer economically viable, the supporting infrastructure like the airstrip is abandoned due to a lack of need and funding for maintenance.

The site is completely abandoned and unusable as an airport. Current satellite imagery shows a clearly visible but severely degraded dirt/gravel runway. The surface is overgrown with desert scrub and shows significant signs of erosion from water runoff. There are no buildings, hangars, lighting, or any other aviation infrastructure present at the site. It has effectively reverted to the surrounding natural desert landscape.

The airport holds no known major historical significance. It was a private utility airstrip, not intended for public or commercial use. Its primary function would have been to support logistical operations in a remote and sparsely populated area of the Chihuahuan Desert, where ground transportation is difficult. Operations would have been limited to small, rugged, general aviation aircraft (e.g., Cessna, Piper) capable of using a short, unpaved runway. These aircraft would have transported personnel, light cargo, and essential supplies.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Hueso Uno Airport. Given its extreme remoteness, the complete lack of infrastructure, and the absence of any apparent economic driver in the immediate vicinity, the likelihood of it ever being restored for aviation purposes is virtually zero. Any such project would be prohibitively expensive and lack a clear purpose.
