After further review it seems east and west have been swapped and may not be valid for navigation . Also the topography may not match the terrain. Any way more study is needed.

Hi All
I am in the process on putting a strip in my back yard. I think I have enough length Total about 1,500 ft with about 1,100 ft usable. Elevation is 450 ft rising to 530 ft according to ForeFlight on my phone. I have cleared all the trees and I am meeting with an excavator to try and decide what I need done. My question is what degree up slope do you think will be doable and degree of slope left to right. It will be a one-way strip with not much of a go-round option because or rising terrain. I have a M-7 235 C on 8.5 X 6 tires I am about 4 miles north of Morgantown PA O03

Hi All
I am looking for some help, I am putting a strip in my back yard, about 4 miles north of Morgantown Pa O03. I have taken the trees down and am meeting with an excavator to get it leveled out "some". My question is what do you think a reasonable up slope would be and how much left to right slope would work. It is about 1,500 ft long with about 1,100 feet usable, it will be a one way strip because of rising terrain after landing, with a heading of about 240 degrees.
