JACKPOT/HAYDEN FLD sits at Jackpot, Nevada. The field elevation is 5,223.7 ft MSL. It has one runway, 15/33, which is 6,180 ft long on asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 6,223.7 ft MSL. The runway has medium intensity lighting, runway end identifier lights and PAPI on both ends. The beacon runs from sunset to sunrise. Beacon visibility is limited from the west.

The published remarks matter here. In calm wind, departure on runway 15 and arrival on runway 33 are recommended because of slope. Terrain obstructions are south and west of the airport. There is also a bird hazard east of the airport at the ponds. Fuel is not available on the field. If you need current operational details before arrival, call the airport operator or check the current FAA Chart Supplement. This is a high-elevation field. Performance planning deserves extra attention, especially on warm days.
