Pattern altitude is not published at K65. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local procedure says otherwise. Field elevation is 2,779 ft MSL, so plan your pattern work with density altitude in mind. No tower is published for this airport, so pilots self-announce and sequence visually.

No right-traffic pattern is published in the facts. No special pattern notes are published either. Keep your pattern tight and clear of other traffic. Verify runway choice before entering. The airport has three runways. That gives you options, but it also means you need to confirm the active runway before every approach.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
