RWY 27

Littlefork Muni/Hanover is in Littlefork, Minnesota. The field elevation is 1,145 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 09/27 is 3,000 ft of turf, so plan for grass performance and seasonal surface changes. The airport is non-towered. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the standard pattern near 2,145 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport remarks also note ultralight traffic in and around the field. Expect to keep a sharp lookout in the pattern.

Published remarks say the runway has yellow cone marking on 09/27. They also note a 25 ft antenna about 500 ft southeast of the runway. It is marked and lighted. The airport is not plowed in winter months. That matters here. Check surface condition before you go, especially after snow or freeze-thaw cycles. For IFR clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so verify fuel and service options with the airport operator or by calling the field directly before arrival.
