What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Calico Ranch Airport (US-3605) in Yermo, US, is not a conventional public airport and therefore does not have traveler reviews and experiences in the typical sense. Information suggests it is a private, FAA-listed landing strip that has historically been used as a grazing ranch for bison and yak. Due to its nature, there is no information available regarding traveler sentiment, terminal facilities, security, or transportation connections as would be expected for a commercial or even a more active general aviation airport.

What Travelers Love

N/A: There are no typical traveler reviews for this private strip.

Common Complaints

Livestock on Runway: Landing at Calico Ranch Airport would reportedly result in a "rude welcome by the livestock" (bison and yak), which are described as the "only actual controllers on duty".
Prior Arrangement Required: Use of the runway necessitates prior arrangement with the owner due to the presence of buffalo grazing.
Limited Suitability: The airport's 4% slope up to the northwest and limited length restrict its use to STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) aircraft, helicopters, and ultralights.

In summary, Calico Ranch Airport (US-3605) appears to be a highly unconventional and private landing strip, essentially a grazing ranch, rather than an operational airport for public use. Prospective users would need to make explicit arrangements with the owner and be prepared for the unique challenge of sharing the runway with livestock.
