Spanish Peaks Airfield sits in Walsenburg, Colorado at 6,054.7 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 09/27 at 4,715 ft asphalt. Runway 02/20 is 2,238 ft turf-dirt. This is an untowered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement or the airport operator says otherwise. The field carries a magnetic variation of 8°. Runway 09 has PAPI lighting. Runways 09 and 27 also have medium intensity runway lighting that is controlled by CTAF. That helps for night work, but you still need to verify current lighting status before departure.
Spanish Peaks Airfield has one on-field FBO. Spanish Peaks Airfield carries 100LL and Jet A. Twenty-four hour credit card fuel is available. Runway 02/20 has several cautions in the published remarks. Runway 02 is closed except by prior permission. The first 1,000 feet of runway 02 has ruts and bumps. There is also a fence near the threshold on runway 02 and another fence near runway 20. Expect high-elevation performance planning here. The airport also notes intensive military student training activity in the Colorado Springs and Pueblo area. Check the current Chart Supplement and call the airport operator before using runway 02/20.
