This is a cold temperature airport. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 22 degrees Celsius. The turf can be soft when wet. Runway threshold markers and raised steel plates are noted on the turf runways, so taxi carefully and brief the surface condition before you roll. Waterfowl have also been reported on and near the airport. If you are flying IFR, note that non-standard ATC minima apply for arrivals with respect to high-performance aircraft operations inside R-3602. Check the current Chart Supplement and coordinate with ATC if your trip depends on that airspace.
