This month's race was created by Teson, and takes us to Idaho's scenic Frank Church River of No Return wilderness, with a mix of backcountry airstrips as challenging as they get — short (down to 1,100 ft), high (up to 6,500 ft), difficult (located in deep canyons), and for some without the possibility of go-arounds (you have to get it right the first time).
Be sure to review the landing strips before the flight, and select a plane that can get in and out of there!
The first leg has a "how low can you go" challenge (where you get a time bonus for keeping low to the ground), but for the other legs you only have to stay beneath the specified maximum altitudes.
Teson might still post some FSX flightplans later on, to make navigation a bit easier. (They will be posted on the race page.)
