This field has several published runway notes that matter on arrival. Aircraft land on runway 20. Aircraft take off on runway 02. Runway 02 has an obstruction light out of service indefinitely. There is also a ditch along the east side near runway 02. A hill sits close to the threshold. Runway 20 has trees and a road near the departure end. Deer are reported on and near the runway, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and landing. Medium intensity runway lights are activated by CTAF. For clearance delivery, contact Memphis ARTCC by phone before departure. A first-time pilot should plan a careful stabilized approach. Brief the displaced threshold notes. Verify current runway condition and lighting before going in.
