For a first-time arrival, note the runway lighting on 18/36. The medium intensity lights are preset on low intensity. Use CTAF to increase intensity. Runway 08 and runway 26 are marked with yellow cones at the threshold and edge. Portions of the taxiways and tie down areas are a mix of concrete and asphalt. There are also construction cranes about 0.9 miles east southeast of the airport. Check your situational awareness on the approach. This matters in daylight when the cones and surface changes stand out.
