Eureka Creek Airport (2Z2) sits in Eureka Creek, Alaska at 700 ft MSL. This field has no published runways in the facts block. No control tower is listed. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current Chart Supplement before planning traffic pattern work here.
The published remarks are the main thing to know. The runway is described as hazardous, not maintained and not recommended for emergency use. It is also listed as unsuitable for all aircraft. The surface is reported as soft and wet with ruts, with 15-foot trees growing on the runway. Trees and brush are noted close to the centerline. A 3-foot berm is reported on each side within 40 feet of centerline. The runway is not monitored, so a visual inspection is recommended before any landing attempt.
There is no on-field FBO listed. CTAF is 122.9. If you need current field status, use the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly before you go. For emergency planning, the published remarks point pilots to Elliot Highway or Manley Hot Springs Airport instead of this strip.
