Jerome County Airport sits in Jerome, Idaho at 4,053.1 ft MSL. It has one runway, 09/27, which is 5,002 ft long and paved with asphalt. The field is non-towered. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard traffic pattern planning at 1,000 ft AGL unless local procedures or the current Chart Supplement say otherwise.
No ILS approaches are published here. For IFR work, plan around the current approach setup and coordinate with Twin Falls Approach. Published remarks also note multiple 700 ft towers about 1.3 NM east-northeast of the field. They sit right of the runway 27 approach path. That is worth keeping in mind on arrival and departure, especially when flying the west end.
On the field, Precision Aviation carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Jerome County Airport also carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. The runway lights on 09/27 are activated by clicking the CTAF five times. The parallel taxiway is marked with reflectors. This is a high-elevation airport, so performance planning matters. Check density altitude before you go, especially on warm days. For clearance delivery, contact Twin Falls Approach. If approach is closed, use Salt Lake ARTCC.
