Groton Muni sits in Groton, South Dakota. The field elevation is 1,310 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, at 2,500 ft of turf. The runway headings are 179° and 359° magnetic. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. With no on-field FBOs listed, plan on self-sufficiency and verify services before you go. The airport remarks matter here. The field is not recommended for winter use. It is also closed from December through April unless you have prior permission. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588.
This is a small turf strip with limited published infrastructure. Check runway condition before arrival. Seasonal closure and winter use limits make this a field where timing matters more than anything else. If you are planning a stop here, confirm access and any permission requirements with the airport operator before departure.
