RWY 25

Fort Bridger Airport (KFBR) sits in Fort Bridger, Wyoming at 7,038 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is runway 04/22 at 6,404 ft. Runway 07/25 is 3,520 ft and turf-dirt. This is a non-towered field. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern near 8,038 ft MSL. The elevation is high enough that density altitude will matter on warm days. Expect longer takeoff rolls and a shallower climb than you may be used to.

Runway 04/22 has PAPI, runway end identifier lights and medium intensity runway lights controlled by CTAF. 100LL is available 24 hours by credit card. There are no on-field FBOs listed. Pilot supplied tie down ropes are required. Runway 04/22 is plowed in winter. Runway 07/25 is closed in winter except for ski-equipped aircraft. The dirt and turf runway is not maintained. If you need after-hours service, call 307-799-5513. For clearance delivery when Flight Service is not reachable, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568.
