A few published remarks matter for planning. Runway 17/35 has medium intensity lights that are preset low from sunset to sunrise. Use the CTAF to increase intensity and activate them. Taxiway lights are only at the taxiway entrance. Runway 08/26 is marked with yellow cones. The airport also notes frequent wildlife in and near the field. Clearance delivery is handled through Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. The field is owned by the town of Drummond and Namegagon. Expect a non-towered arrival with a high-elevation feel for the region. Check runway condition before departure because runway conditions are not reported.
