LEACH (1V8) sits in Center, Colorado at 7,598 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 12/30 is 7,000 ft asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard pattern planning if appropriate for your aircraft. Verify the current Chart Supplement before you go. The field is high elevation, so expect density altitude to matter on warm days. Runway 12/30 has low intensity lights that are activated by CTAF. The runway markings are reported as worn and faded on both ends. Published remarks also note a displaced threshold on runway 12 at night. Runway 12 has a 135 ft nighttime displaced threshold. Runway 30 has obstacle issues near the pavement end, including a power line and a snow fence.
Alpine Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL. For clearance delivery, contact Denver ARTCC at 303-651-4257. The runway environment has multiple obstructions and slope issues near both ends. A first-time pilot should brief the Chart Supplement carefully and plan for the elevation, the runway lighting setup and the displaced threshold details before arrival.
