Lake Elmo (21D) sits in St Paul, Minnesota. Field elevation is 932.9 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is 14/32 at 3,504 ft. Runway 04/22 is 2,496 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.075. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern around 1,933 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Lake Elmo Aero is on the field. It carries 100LL. Fuel is available 24 hours a day self-service by credit card.
A few operational notes matter here. Voluntary noise abatement procedures are in effect. Deer, birds and other wildlife are reported on and near the airport. Ultralight operations are prohibited. Runway 14/32 has PAPI, REIL and medium intensity lights. The runway lights are controlled by CTAF. Minneapolis Approach handles clearance delivery and approach or departure services. For a first visit, brief the calm wind runway. Expect a non-towered pattern with local noise awareness.
