Twin Hills Airport sits in Twin Hills, Alaska. Field elevation is 82 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 3,000 ft of gravel. It is the longest runway on the field. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.5.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The runway has a 2 percent uphill slope to the north. Runway condition is unmonitored, so a visual check before use is smart. The rotating beacon is activated by CTAF. Medium intensity runway lights for 18/36 are also CTAF-activated.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. Check with the airport operator or the field directly for current services before you go. Pilots should also plan for the north bluff. Turbulence is possible when landing south. Magnetic variation is 19°, so keep runway headings and local navigation aligned with magnetic references.
