This is a high-elevation backcountry strip, so performance planning matters. No control tower is published. 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 says otherwise. The field is closed during winter months except to ski equipped aircraft. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. There are no on-field FBOs listed.
