Jackson Muni sits in Jackson, Minnesota. Field elevation is 1,445.7 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 14/32 at 4,145 ft. Runway 04/22 is turf and closes during winter months. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 2,446 ft MSL based on the field elevation.

PS Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Fuel is available 24 hours via credit card. The airport building access code is the CTAF frequency. After hours service is listed by phone in the Chart Supplement remarks.

A few runway notes matter here. Runway 14 has a PAPI, but it is unusable beyond 6 degrees left of course. Runway 14/32 has medium intensity lights controlled by CTAF, with the lights preset to low intensity. Yellow cones mark the ends of 04 and 22. This is a non-towered field in southwest Minnesota, so plan your self-announce work carefully and verify current field status before you go.
