Washburn Muni sits in Washburn, North Dakota. The field elevation is 1,908 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 08/26 at 3,700 ft of concrete. The other runway is 17/35 at 2,204 ft of turf. Runway 17/35 is closed in winter because snow removal is not provided on a regular schedule.
This is an untowered field. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the normal pattern reference at 2,908 ft MSL.
The airport has 24-hour self-serve 100LL with credit card. Medium intensity runway lights are available on 08/26. The PAPI for 08/26 is controlled by CTAF. Low intensity lighting is not available. For clearance delivery, Minneapolis ARTCC handles it by phone. Wildlife is part of the picture here. Waterfowl, blackbirds, deer and antelope have all been reported on or near the airport. A tall smoke stack sits about 6 miles west-northwest of the field. Plan for North Dakota weather and winter surface conditions. Check with the airport manager after a major storm before using the airport.
