Copper Basin Airport sits near Mackay, Idaho. The field elevation is 7,920 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 4,700 ft long and turf. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light piston pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. With the field sitting in a high mountain valley, density altitude is a real factor. The published remarks say it can exceed 10,000 ft in summer. Plan performance with that in mind.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need current services. Published remarks also note livestock and wildlife may be on or near the airport. Runway 13 has fence obstructions near the threshold. The runway edges and thresholds are marked with white rocks. No winter maintenance is provided. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. This is a remote mountain strip with a turf surface. A first-time pilot should expect short-field judgment, terrain awareness and changing conditions on the ground.
