UGASHIK Airport sits in Ugashik, Alaska. Field elevation is 43.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 06/24 is 3,100 ft long and surfaced with gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. That puts the light aircraft pattern at about 1,044 ft MSL based on field elevation. Verify before you fly.

Published remarks matter here. Reflective orange cones and threshold panels mark both runway ends. Brush is along both sides of the runway and near the thresholds. The runway can be soft when wet. Water also ponds mid-field. Runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual inspection before landing is a good idea. There is also a private runway 2,500 ft south-southeast of the field.

No on-field FBOs are listed. Plan on self-sufficiency and verify current services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival. In this part of Alaska, weather and surface condition can change fast. The gravel surface, soft spots and nearby brush deserve a careful arrival brief.
