RWY 15

Brooten Muni/John O Bohmer Fld sits in Brooten, Minnesota. Field elevation is 1,304 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 15/33 is 3,500 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless local procedures or current chart data say otherwise. The field has 100LL available 24 hours a day by credit card. Runway lights on 15/33 are preset to low intensity. Pilot activation or a higher setting is on the CTAF. The published remarks also note crop obstruction near the runway 33 end. That matters on departure and on the final segment when using that end. Clearance delivery goes through Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588.

This is an uncontrolled field with a single runway, so self-announce early and keep a close scan in the pattern. Summer agriculture operations are published too. Expect local traffic and field work to share the area during those months. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before you go for any updates to remarks or procedures.
