Grant County Rgnl/Ogilvie Fld sits in John Day, Oregon at 3,702.5 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 5,224 ft on runway 17/35. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here, so plan with the current chart and weather in hand.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless local procedures or current guidance say otherwise. The field uses REIL on runways 09 and 17. Runway 09 has PAPI. Runway 17 has PAPI that is on continuously. Both runway pairs have medium intensity runway lighting. That helps for night work, but the airport sits at high elevation. Expect performance to matter on warm days.
Grant County Regional Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL and Jet A. After hours, self-service fuel is available. The airport also has soft edges along runways and taxiways. Taxiways are marked with reflectors. Helicopter activity occurs from July through October. There is terrain 850 ft AGL about 9,400 ft south of runway 35, so pay attention to departure planning and climb performance. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694.
