Palomar Airport: Why Landing on a Pile of Garbage is Awesome

Palomar airport (KCRQ) in Carlsbad, CA is at the northern end of San Diego County and it's built on an old landfill. I've flown Cessna's there several times and it's a nice little airport. It's technically built on top of a landfill, but that helps keep it above the surrounding terrain, actually making landing there relatively easy.
