RWY 21

Sawyer County Airport sits in Hayward, Wisconsin. Field elevation is 1,215.9 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is runway 03/21 at 5,003 ft. Runway 16/34 is turf and measures 1,088 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

Runway 21 has the ILS approach. Runway 03/21 also has MALSR lighting. Runway 03 has REIL. PAPI is available on runways 03 and 21. The high intensity runway lights on 03 and 21 are controlled by CTAF. From sunset to sunrise, they come up at low intensity first. You can ask for more intensity on frequency. Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

Hayward Aviation is on the field. It carries AVGAS 100LL and Jet A. Runway 16 and runway 34 are closed from December 1 to April 15. Yellow cones mark the ends of those turf runways. Airport condition is unmonitored from 1700 to 0800. Birds are present on and near the airport. If you need clearance delivery when frequency contact is not available, call Minneapolis ARTCC. For a first-time arrival, expect a non-towered field with night lighting control on CTAF and check the current Chart Supplement for any changes before you go.
