Flying to Pine Hollow Airport


   Pine Hollow Airport is nestled into
the foothills southeast of Mt. Hood,
in the beautiful Northwest section
of Oregon. This area is one that is
visually stimulating, both on the
ground and in the air.

Flying in this area can be challenging
at times, because of thermals,
and air flow around Mt. Hood.
It is a good idea to be familiar with
aircraft operations around mountainous
terrain.

Normal landing traffic is
to the West, as shown in this
photo of a final approach to
Pine Hollow Airport.

The Columbia Gorge Offers a
beautiful passage from the West.
Much of the time, moist Pacific air
is held to the West side of Mt Hood.
The Dalles and Hood River are the
nearest Public Airports to Pine Hollow.
Pine Hollow is about 25 miles South
of these popular stops in the
Columbia Gorge.
