POWERS Airport (6S6) sits in Powers, Oregon at 326 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 2,500 ft of turf, which is the longest runway on the field. The airport is non-towered. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the current Chart Supplement before you go. The field sits in a valley surrounded by high terrain. That matters for arrival planning and climb performance. Livestock and wildlife are also on and near the airport. Keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and final.

Runway 13 end is not marked. Runway 31 has white tires marking the threshold. There are also 25-foot trees within 35 feet of the runway centerline along the edge to 1,700 feet from the 31 threshold. That makes the 31 end worth a careful look on short final. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call ahead before arrival.
