Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local guidance says otherwise. Field elevation is 7,679.6 ft MSL, so density altitude can matter. This is a non-towered airport. Self-announce and sequence with other traffic. Runway 06 uses right traffic. Runway 17 uses right traffic. Runway 24 and runway 35 are not listed with right traffic exceptions in the facts. Keep pattern work tight and use the current FAA Chart Supplement for any airport-specific notes.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
