Guess the spot

There is a big hint behind one of the clouds on the horizon.
 
it's a BIG hint mostly hidden behind a cloud on the horizon. massive even.
 
That mountain behind the cloud is larger than Mt Goode
 
I guess I'm up, though that was a pretty big WAG. OK, this one's not backcountry, but if you get in one of these machines, you can see a lot of backcountry real quick. Thinking of @Artemus while posting this one. It's one of the trickier mountain airports to fly in/out of - trees at both ends, have to fly down a windy canyon, tricky air currents, above a river, not real long, high altitude. Where is it?

no, wrong state - there's a town just up the road from this and the airport has the same name as the town, it's their muni airport. It's rated number 4 for tricky mountain airports in the U.S., but that's a rating given by pilots, so probably not on the Google lists.

Hint: note the maroon-colored formation.
