Christmas Valley Airport sits in Christmas Valley, Oregon. The field elevation is 4,320.1 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 07/25 is 5,200 ft long and paved with asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8, though UNICOM is monitored irregularly.

No ILS approaches are published here. The published remarks say medium intensity runway lights are available on 07/25. The PAPI is on runway 25. Remote controlled aircraft operate in the vicinity, so keep a sharp lookout on arrival and departure. The airport is owned by the Christmas Valley Park and Recreation District.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local guidance says otherwise. That puts the light aircraft pattern at about 5,320.1 ft MSL. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. This is a high-elevation field, so expect thinner air and longer takeoff rolls than you would at a low airport. Verify current procedures in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go.
