RWY 17

Hanksville Airport sits in Hanksville, Utah. Field elevation is 4,453.6 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 5,001 ft. Runway 17/35 is 4,841 ft and is dirt. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so a light piston pilot should plan on the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at 5,453.6 ft MSL by simple math. Verify the published pattern before you go.

The remarks matter here. Runway 17/35 is restricted to landing north and takeoff to the south only. The first 1,000 ft of runway 17 is soft. Vegetation makes runway 17/35 unusable south of runway 09/27. Winter operations can be limited because the runways are not plowed. For runway 09/27, the PAPI and medium intensity runway lights are activated on CTAF. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before arrival. This is a high-elevation field in open country, so expect density altitude to matter on warm days.
