Shoshoni Muni sits in Shoshoni, Wyoming at 4,818 ft MSL. It has two dirt runways. The longest is runway 08/26 at 4,650 ft. Runway 11/29 is 2,950 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field can be a little different from a paved strip. Both runways are soft when wet. Runway 08/26 also has no line of sight between the ends, so plan your taxi and back taxi with that in mind. Touchdown zones are not marked on either runway.

Published remarks matter here. The airport has uncontrolled vehicle access. Antelope are present on the airport. There is also a stretched cable south of the hangar area in the grass, so use ropes as required and keep a close eye on the ground when taxiing or backtracking. The segmented circle is nonstandard, so do not rely on a quick glance from the air. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and service availability with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go.
