RWY 13

Timberon Airport sits near Alamogordo, New Mexico. The field elevation is 6,963 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 4,860 ft long with an asphalt surface, though the published remarks also note chip seal. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. The airport is for VFR use only. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current traffic pattern altitude before you go. For a light piston, pilots often plan around the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern. That is not a published value for this field.

The published remarks matter here. Trees sit near both runway ends. A helicopter is near the threshold of runway 13. Runway 13 has a downhill slope toward the southeast. Runway 31 has trees across the threshold. Deer and elk are reported on the runway, especially at dusk. For clearance delivery, contact Albuquerque ARTCC at 505-856-4861. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services and fuel availability with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival. At this elevation, takeoff and climb performance deserve a close look. That is especially true on warm days.
