I'll dig around tomorrow for some pics and show you what the actual approach looks like. Yes, it can get very interesting in that box canyon. Just to answer one of your questions...land on 15, depart on 33, if at all possible. I won't tell you how a circle to land 33 looks from the real airplane...but there's a reason you don't want to do it in a jet!!! Enough said!!
The crash you referred to I believe they tried circling at night with a left hand pattern (read: to the right and ended in cumulogranite).
Also, you must have special training (read a Gulfstream crew, most likely with all the FLIR, etc. they have) to land there at night.
