Montana Creek is a private airstrip located 14.5 NM South of the town of Talkeetna, Alaska. The airstrip is located in a marsh field, with the runway being surrounded on all sides by trees, except for on the North end, which is cleared.
Montana Creek has been completely reworked from the ground-up, making numerous improvements to the airstrip and the general area surrounding it. In stock MSFS, the runway was unrealistically displayed in a hole, which has now been corrected to match the surrounding terrain. The runway has not been flattened, so elevations still vary slightly down it's length. Furthermore, a handful of fields in the surrounding area have also been retouched, drastically improving tree placement, which was originally way too dense, crowding out most of the fields. Some water features have also been reworked or had water added to them, if it was nonexistent in stock MSFS.
Features:
- Rebuilt from the ground-up!
- Corrected runway elevations.
- Overhauled tree placement near the airstrip.
- Adds water to and corrects several water features in the area.
- Adds a handful of (default) clutter models around the area.
Requirements

So glad I have discovered your work. These freeware strips are fantastic! Have you considered recreating the Ose Mountain strip in Alaska from the Netflix TV series Win the Wilderness at all?

I have actually never heard of this strip. I'm guessing it's NNW of Kantishna from what I can find online. No imagery up that way. Will have to see if there are any imagery sources that cover that area. If there is some data available, I will look at adding it to my list. However, it's a long one!
