AVEY FLD is in Laurier, Washington. The field elevation is 1,655 ft MSL. It has one runway, 17/35, which is 1,975 ft long and gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at 2,655 ft MSL. The runway headings are magnetic, with 17/35 aligned about 185°/5°. The airport sits near the U.S.-Canada border. The remarks say U.S.-based aircraft should park on the south side of the ramp. Canadian-based aircraft should park on the north side.
This is a field to treat with care. The published remarks call out a building in the primary surface. They also call out a steep drop off at the runway ends, trees and fences in the primary surface, very soft and rough shoulders, vehicles and animals near the runway and helicopter activity during fire season. Density altitude is also a concern at this elevation. There are no on-field FBOs listed. For customs, the remarks say Canadian and United States customs are available on the highway to the west. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694.
