BOLD (A13) is in Anchorage, Alaska. Field elevation is 900 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts block, so check the current FAA Chart Supplement and the airport operator before you plan any arrival. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
The published pattern altitude is not listed for this field. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement for the correct traffic pattern information before flying in. The airstrip sits inside Chugach State Park. Sharply rising terrain is east, south and west of the field. That matters for arrival planning and escape options.
Published remarks flag several operational issues. Landings are not allowed on the lake. Hikers and vehicles are in the vicinity of the airstrip. Brush up to 30 inches high is reported on the northeast half of the runway for the full length. Runway 14/32 is rutted and uneven. Trees are encroaching on both sides. Runway 14 slopes down toward the lake. Runway 14 also has a gentle hump at the approach end. The wind indicator is unreliable because trees are growing up around the windsock. No on-field FBOs are listed. Verify current access, surface condition and any local procedures before you go.
