How to read

The top lane is always the active baseline (BASE + FM). Secondary lanes stack temporary and probabilistic deviations in the order they appear in the TAF.

Tap any pill to see the decoded conditions for that period.

Change indicators

FMFrom

A new baseline that replaces the previous forecast completely, starting at the stated time.

BECMGBecoming

KRASSEL USFS (24K) is in Mc Call, Idaho. The field elevation is 3,982 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 17/35 is 1,500 ft of turf, which makes this a short backcountry-style strip with real terrain and surface issues to think about before you go. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement or local conditions say otherwise. The published remarks matter here. The runway may not be mowed to full width. The surface is rough from rodent holes and activity. Trees on both sides run about 80 to 120 ft tall. There is also a 300 ft ridge about 3,600 ft along the centerline of runway 35. The remarks also say to land on runway 17 and take off from runway 35 when wind conditions permit.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan to self-brief carefully before arrival. Summer helicopter activity is heavy. Clearance delivery is handled through Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. If you are new to the field, treat this as a high-caution arrival and verify current conditions with the airport operator before you launch.

Does KRASSEL USFS have an ILS approach?

No ILS approaches are published. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any other instrument procedure details before you go.

What is the pattern altitude at 24K?

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless current published guidance says otherwise.

What runway should I use at KRASSEL USFS?

The published remark says to land on runway 17 and take off from runway 35 when wind conditions permit. That is worth planning around because runway 35 has a ridge about 3,600 ft down the centerline.

Are there any hazards on the runway at 24K?

Yes. The remarks call out trees on both sides of the runway. The surface is rough from rodent activity. A 300 ft ridge is near the runway 35 end. The runway may also not be mowed to full width.
