Greeley-Weld County Airport sits in Greeley, Colorado at 4,696.8 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 10,000 ft. The other is 5,801 ft. There is no control tower, so expect CTAF traffic flow and self-announced position calls on 122.7.
The published pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which puts the traffic pattern at 5,496.8 ft MSL. One ILS is published for runway 35. Peak Flight Support is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. Call ahead if you need after-hours access or attendance.
This is a busy high-plains field with some operational details worth planning for. Runway 17/35 is the preferred runway when the crosswind on 10/28 gets above 12 knots. Runway 35 is also preferred when wind is less than 5 knots. It is the preferred runway for touch-and-go work too. Watch for oil drilling rigs up to 120 ft near the airport. Wildlife and birds are also reported in and around the field. If you depart runway 28, avoid a southbound turn before crossing the runway 10 threshold. The lighting is pilot-controlled on CTAF. It has medium intensity lights and runway end identifier lights on both runways.
