The airstrip sits Шаблон:Cvt from the shore of Lake Roosevelt, one of Arizona's largest bodies of water.[1]
First constructed in the 1950s and paved in the 1980s, the airstrip was closed by the United States Forest Service (USFS) on June 27, 1997.Шаблон:Why Starting in 2012 with approval of the USFS, volunteers from the Recreational Aviation Foundation and Arizona Pilots Association donated hundreds of volunteer hours over five years to bring Grapevine Airstrip to an operational status. It reopened on February 10, 2017.[2][3][4][5]
Grapevine was officially charted as a private airport by agreement with the USFS, to ensure that no touch-and-go landings, training, or commercial operations are conducted at the airstrip. However, it is open to the public, and the Arizona Pilots Association holds regular fly-ins to the airstrip.[6]
