Yes they are and yes it is with around 600m usable. My RV-9 is based there there, and if I nail the approach, am easily down and stopped by the halfway mark when landing uphill, about where the rescue chopper is.
HERE's the satellite view.

RWY 35 has a 2% downslope, in this case, towards the accident scene.
