The airport is closed from October 1 to June 1 except for approved military and public safety or law enforcement helicopter operations. That matters more than anything else for planning.

Bring your own ropes if you plan to tie down. Pilots should also check the current FAA Chart Supplement and contact Washington State Aviation Division before use, since this field has special operating limits and seasonal closure rules.
