Northern Colorado Rgnl sits in Fort Collins/Loveland, Colorado. Field elevation is 5,020.3 ft MSL. The airport has two asphalt runways. The longest is runway 15/33 at 8,500 ft. Runway 06/24 is 2,189 ft. The field is towered. Tower hours are 1500-0100Z++. For clearance delivery, Denver Approach handles that task. The airport has one ILS approach. It serves runway 33.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Use the current Chart Supplement before you fly. The field is at high elevation, so performance planning matters. Expect density altitude to be a real factor in warm weather. Runway 33 is listed as the calm wind runway for winds 5 knots or less. That is useful when the wind is light.
