48U sits in Green River, Wyoming. Field elevation is 7,182 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 04/22 is 5,652 ft long and surfaced with dirt. The field is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks also matter here. There is no snow removal available. The runway is soft when wet. Cone markers define the runway ends and edges on both 04 and 22. Clearance delivery is handled through Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568.
This is a high-elevation strip at 7,182 ft MSL. Expect density altitude to be a real factor, especially on warm days. Plan performance carefully. With one dirt runway and no published ILS, a first-time pilot should brief the surface condition. Brief the wind too. Brief the departure performance before committing. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updated procedures or restrictions before you go.
