Chewelah Muni sits in Chewelah, Washington at 2,084 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 3,537 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan with the current chart and weather in mind before you go.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement or airport traffic advisories say otherwise. All traffic patterns are to the west. That matters here because the field has wildlife in the area. There are published obstructions near the approach end of runway 17. The runway 17 approach also has a displaced threshold note and a steep obstacle clearance note in the remarks, so review the current airport data before arrival.
Fuel is available on the field. The airport lists 100LL and Jet A with 24-hour credit card self-service. Lodging and food are also available at the airport. Runway lights on 17/35 are activated by CTAF. The PAPI on both runway ends operates continuously. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC. If you are flying in for the first time, give yourself time to brief the west pattern, the terrain and obstruction notes and the wildlife risk on rollout and taxi.
