HORSFELD Airport (4Z5) is in HORSFELD, Alaska. The field elevation is 3,620 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts block, so check the current FAA Chart Supplement and the airport operator before you plan a landing. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if the current Chart Supplement and local conditions support it. The airport sits in a bowl with mountain peaks close by. Expect gusty, shifting wind. The published remarks also call out a nonstandard wind indicator made from a pole with colored streamers.
Surface conditions deserve attention here. The remarks say the runway ends have narrow rough brush slopes and four-foot brush along the edges. They also warn of rutted, slippery mud that hurts braking action. That makes a careful preflight and a conservative performance plan important, especially at this elevation. No on-field FBOs are listed. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current services before you go.
