Big Bear

Flew to Big Bear, California today for the first time. The airport elevation is around 5500 and it is surrounded by mountains with peaks of around 8500. Fun, fun, fun. Except when we walked into the FSDO and found out that someone had crashed just 40 minutes before we got there. Seems the pilot was attempting a go-around and ended up landing between two houses. Pilot was in good shape considering what happened.
