Tanglefoot Airport (D28) sits in Cavanaugh Bay, Idaho. The field elevation is 2,438 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts for this airport. No tower is published, so use CTAF 122.9 and keep your scan tight. No ILS approaches are published here.
The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. For this field, that puts the pattern at about 3,438 ft MSL. The magnetic variation is 19°.
This is a seaplane base environment. Published remarks say to monitor 122.9. They also say to announce intentions and build traffic patterns that match the nearby Cavanaugh Bay Airport pattern. The airport is adjacent to Cavanaugh Bay Airport on the south side. Watch for traffic in the area. Tie-downs are available at floating docks. Additional parking is available on the beach. Clearance delivery is handled through Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694.
Published remarks also note a runway 15/33 seaplane operating area with a 5-foot no-wake buoy in the landing area. When winds permit, the remarks recommend landing runway 15 and departing runway 33. Plan for close traffic coordination here. Check the current Chart Supplement and coordinate on CTAF before you commit to the water.
