Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless the current FAA Chart Supplement or ATC says otherwise. This field is not towered. Expect self-announced traffic and standard see-and-avoid procedures. Runway 18/36 is the only runway, so pattern work centers on that strip. Use caution with density altitude. The field elevation is 2,940.8 ft MSL, so performance planning matters.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
