A first-time pilot should pay attention to the surrounding terrain. There are four obstruction lights on hills outside the pattern. Birds are reported on and near the airport. Glider activity is also published from April through November. Runway 27 has REILs. Runways 09 and 27 have medium-intensity lights that are controlled by CTAF. Runway 09 and runway 36 also have published displaced-threshold approach slope notes, so brief the approach carefully before arrival.
