Gardiner Airport (29S) sits in Gardiner, Montana at 5,286 ft MSL. It is an untowered airport. No runways are listed in the published facts, so verify the current field layout before you go. No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if the current Chart Supplement or local guidance supports that for your aircraft and operation.
This is a high-elevation field. Density altitude will matter on warm days. The published remarks also flag terrain and obstacle issues near both runway ends. There is a road 85 ft from the runway end on both sides of runway 28. There are also 15 ft trucks 210 ft from the runway end of runway 28. A mountain sits 1.5 miles from runway 10 with a 9 to 1 ratio. That means climb performance and departure planning deserve close attention.
CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. There is no tower. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. No on-field FBOs are listed in the facts, so plan to verify services directly before arrival.
