Traffic pattern
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. At this non-towered airport, pilots sequence themselves in the pattern and on approach. Right traffic is published for Runway 17. Right traffic is also published for Runway 05. That makes both of those ends important to brief before arrival. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any airport-specific updates before you fly.
Every end, one page
Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
