RWY 22

Driggs/Reed Memorial Airport sits in Driggs, Idaho. The field elevation is 6,257.2 ft MSL. It has one runway, 04/22, which is 7,301 ft long. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. No ILS approaches are published. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Teton Aviation Center is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Air Methods is also onsite. The published remarks matter here. Auxiliary power units are restricted to the thirty minutes before planned departure. Longer use can trigger a charge. Helicopter no-hover taxi is noted. Sailplane activity is heavy in summer. The runway lighting is CTAF-controlled. PAPI is continuous on both runway ends. The runway 22 PAPI is unusable beyond 4 NM because of terrain.

This is a high-elevation airport, so performance planning matters. The field is in a mountain setting near Driggs. Expect density altitude to be a real factor on warm days. Calm wind landing is runway 22. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC. If you need any operational detail beyond the published remarks, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone.
