KLXL sits in Little Falls, Minnesota. The field elevation is 1,122.8 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 13/31 at 4,010 ft. The other runway is 18/36 at 2,858 ft. There is no control tower. Use CTAF 122.8 for local traffic. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local procedures or current chart data say otherwise. Big Sky Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and MOGAS. 100LL is available 24 hours a day with credit card access. That makes this a practical stop for piston traffic.

The runway lighting setup is worth a look before you go. Runway 13/31 has medium intensity lights. Runway end identifier lights and PAPI are also published for 13 and 31. Runway 18/36 has low intensity lights. The airport remarks also note that the northwest end of 13/31 has an additional 500 ft marked unusable. Departures from runway 36 should avoid the mink ranch 0.5 NM northeast of the runway. There are also crops close to runway 36. If you need clearance delivery and cannot use the ground communications outlet, contact Minneapolis ARTCC. Check current airport data before night or low-vis operations.
