RWY 02

Salina-Gunnison is in Salina, Utah. The field elevation is 5,159 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 02/20 is 3,855 ft long with an asphalt surface. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light aircraft pattern at 6,159 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport sits in central Utah at higher elevation, so performance planning matters on warm days and with a full load.

Published remarks say the runway lights on 02/20 are medium intensity and are activated by using the common traffic advisory frequency. The airport was established prior to 1959. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field on CTAF before you go.
