Bryce Resort has its own airport. Roll a small plane onto runway VG18, a 2,240-foot strip slicing across a Shenandoah Valley meadow, and you can taxi off to a dog park, a golf course, or a ski lift depending on the season. That detail tells you most of what you need to know about Pete and Julie Brice's 1965 idea: build a place where weekend visitors from Washington, D.C., could do almost anything, and let them get there however they wanted.
