Glorious Glaciers, amazing Peaks.

One of the prettiest approaches in the state — you come in up the Sauk River valley under Whitehorse Mountain with the Glacier Peak wilderness beyond. The 2,491' paved strip (10/28) is in good shape. Plan for day VFR, no fuel on field, and bring your own tie-downs. Expect some chop on warm afternoons landing west, and note the west end of the field is a local cemetery — keep your pattern honest.

What sets Darrington apart is the walk: about ten minutes into a real mountain town with groceries, coffee, and a couple of good spots to eat. The Mountain Loop Highway, the Old Sauk Trail, and the Wild & Scenic Sauk River are all right there, and the Darrington Bluegrass Festival every July (50th anniversary in 2027) makes a great fly-in weekend. The town is actively working to bring the airport back to life — come see it while it's still quiet.

Don't screw up!

Don't screw up! The Cemetery is right up against 07. :)

I actually landed here!

A bit rough but not a problem. If the wind is up, pretty choppy around the trees.
