Higgins/Lipscomb County Airport sits in Higgins, Texas. The field elevation is 2,565.5 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 3,969 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at about 3,565.5 ft MSL. The runway headings are 191° and 11° magnetic. Magnetic variation is 8°.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts, so call the airport operator directly before arrival if you need fuel or ramp details. Published remarks call out loose stones on the runway surface seal. They also note no line of sight between runway ends. Runway 18 has nearby obstruction concerns, including trees on approach and an unlighted water tower northwest of the field. This is a high-elevation airport in the Texas Panhandle, so expect performance to matter on warm days. Check density altitude before departure. If you need clearance delivery, the published contact is Kansas City Center. For any current operational detail, verify with the current FAA Chart Supplement or the airport operator.
