Touch and goes on short width Runway

Another fun one is FirstAir (W16) in Washington State. 2087 x 34 with trees on the approach and parking with the nose of the airplanes almost touching the runway edges. I was on a business trip and had arranged to go up for some flyable actual (the lack of which is a Colorado condition). As luck would have it Seattle was sunny and clear and the CFI suggested Firstair fun place to land. It was. :)
I raise you Woodland State - W27... 1953 x 25 with tall trees and a bridge off the south end.
 
Whe I was getting my tailwheel endorsement, we were planning on finshing up with a tour of airports in the Denver area: BJC, BDU, LMO, EIK, 18V, and maybe FTG if we had spare time & fuel on the way home to APA.

Runway 15/33 at 18V is 4100' x 40' Asphalt and 9/27 is 2500' x 90ft Turf & Gravel. This was last September and we never got to go there because the airplane owner was adamant that the airplane was DAY VFR only, and the only time my tailwheel instructor had avilable was evenings.
