Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedure says otherwise. That puts the light-aircraft pattern at 3,624 ft MSL. The runway is asphalt-treated, but the published remarks say the surface is cracked and degraded. There is also a 1,030 ft dirt extension east of the runway 7 threshold. It can be soft when wet.

The published remarks also call out a 3 ft earth berm and a 6 ft irrigation ditch south of the runway between the ends. Both are parallel to the runway. Runway 25 has a fence 159 ft from the threshold on both sides. Runway 07 has basic markings and does not have numbers and stripes. Low intensity runway lights are activated by CTAF. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC. This is a small non-towered field with some surface and obstacle issues, so plan your landing distance and taxi carefully.
