Lake Andes Muni sits in Lake Andes, South Dakota. Field elevation is 1,475 ft MSL. This is a non-towered airport with one runway. Runway 12/30 is 2,600 ft of turf, which makes it a short-field stop for light piston traffic. No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise.

The field is closed for night operations. It is also closed during the winter months. Wildlife is present on and near the airport, so keep a sharp scan on taxi, takeoff and landing. Runway 12 and Runway 30 are marked with black and white cones. CTAF is 122.9.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival if you need current services. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. If you are planning a trip here, verify current field status in the FAA Chart Supplement before you go. This is especially important because of the published night closure. It is also important because of the winter closure.
