RWY 33

Lakota Muni sits in Lakota, North Dakota. Field elevation is 1,511.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 15/33 is 3,500 ft of asphalt, so plan performance with that length in mind. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston traffic, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at about 2,511.3 ft MSL based on the field elevation. Runway 15/33 has medium intensity lighting and PAPI. The lights operate from dusk to 0000 hours. After hours, use CTAF 122.8 to activate them. Self-service 100LL is available 24 hours by credit card.

A few operational items matter here. There is a 32-foot power line marked with orange balls about one-half nautical mile from the runway 33 threshold on the centerline. Runway 15 has a displaced threshold for a clear approach over the road to the north. A tree row also sits near the runway 15 approach path. Runway markings are faded and worn on both ends. Birds are reported on and near the airport. If you need clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC. For snow removal and winter conditions, call the city superintendent before you go.
