ELK COUNTY is in Moline, Kansas. The field elevation is 1,063 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 2,510 ft long. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at about 2,063 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. The runway has centerline marking only. That matters on a short field when you are trying to stay aligned in a crosswind.
Published remarks call out several obstructions. Near runway 18 there is an overgrown grass waterway close to the end of the runway. A small tree is also reported right of the runway. Near runway 36 there is a road at the threshold. The controlling poles on the right are not visibly marked or lighted. Wildlife is also present on and near the airport. Clearance delivery is handled through Kansas City ARTCC at 913-254-8508. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or call the field directly before you go.
