Le Mars Muni is in Le Mars, Iowa. The field elevation is 1,197 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 5,056 ft long with a concrete surface. The airport is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. Sioux City Approach and Departure are on 124.6 and 307.0 for IFR services and clearance delivery. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the standard pattern around 2,197 ft MSL. Runway 36 is the calm wind runway. The runway has REILs, PAPI and medium intensity runway lights. That helps for night work and marginal visibility.
Ultra Flight is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. After-hours service fee applies. The airport also has published cold temperature correction guidance. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 23 degrees Celsius. Watch the runway end areas on 18. There are shrubs near the departure end and on the right side of the approach path. Runway 36 also has a displaced threshold with a published approach slope note. A first-time pilot should brief the displaced thresholds. Brief the obstacle notes. Brief the non-towered traffic flow before arrival.
