Bowdle Muni sits in Bowdle, South Dakota. Field elevation is 1,963 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 3,600 ft of turf, which is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement or local briefing says otherwise. The airport is closed from November 1 to April 15. It is also closed from sunset to sunrise. That makes daylight planning important. Runway lighting is out of service indefinitely. The rotating beacon is also out of service indefinitely.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current service status before you go. Published remarks also note a 4 ft fence about 200 ft from the threshold on Runway 13. Runway 31 has a 4 ft fence about 250 ft from the threshold. Wildlife is reported on and near the airport. Runway 13 and Runway 31 are marked with yellow and black metal A-frame markers. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. This is a turf strip at nearly 2,000 ft MSL. Check surface condition. Check wind. Check density altitude before you commit.
