Steamboat Springs/Bob Adams Fld is in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Field elevation is 6,882.4 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 14/32 is 4,452 ft long. There is no control tower. UNICOM is available from 0700 to 1700. CTAF is 122.8. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at 7,882.4 ft MSL. Steamboat Springs Airport is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Wildlife is present on and near the airport. Runway 32 is the preferred runway. The published remarks also note a dropoff beyond the runway end on 32. There is brush near the 32 threshold area. The airport is a cold temperature field. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 25 degrees Celsius.
This is a high-elevation mountain airport. Expect performance to matter. Density altitude can climb fast in warm weather. Terrain and obstacle awareness matter on both ends of the runway. Runway 32 has runway end identifier lights, a PAPI and high intensity runway lighting. Special instrument not authorized is published, so plan on current procedures and local traffic flow. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any changes before you go.
