Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator says otherwise. For a light piston, that puts the pattern near 1,661 ft MSL based on the field elevation.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Call the airport operator directly before arrival if you need services or local field status. Published remarks say overnight camping and lodging may be available with prior permission from the airport manager. Wildlife is reported on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and landing. Runway 02/20 has nonstandard low intensity edge lights because of spacing. The lights are activated on CTAF. Clearance delivery is handled through St Louis Approach at 314-890-1017. The remarks also note obstacle clearance requirements near the runway. Check the current Chart Supplement before you go.
