Groveland/Yosemite Airport (E45) sits in Groveland, California at 2,932.6 ft MSL. It has one runway, 09/27, which is 3,624 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.
Mother Lode Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL. Fuel is also available 24 hours by self-service. The airport remarks matter here. Deer are present on and near the airport at all times. Runway 27 has a PAPI, but it is unusable beyond 7 degrees left and right of centerline. Runway lights are medium intensity and are activated by CTAF. There are also gravel runway safety areas at both ends. Trees in the approaches are to be topped or removed.
For first-time arrivals, plan for mountain airport performance at this elevation. Check density altitude before departure. The airport is not towered, so expect self-announced traffic on CTAF. Overnight parking has a fee. For clearance delivery, contact Oakland ARTCC at 510-745-3380. The office is located at Columbia, California airport.
