New Ulm Muni (KULM) sits in New Ulm, Minnesota. Field elevation is 1,011.2 ft MSL. The airport has two runways. The longest is 15/33 at 5,401 ft asphalt. Runway 04/22 is 2,478 ft turf. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 2,011 ft MSL based on the field elevation. North Star Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A Prist. 100LL is available 24 hours a day by credit card.
A few runway notes matter here. Runway 33 has MALSF lighting. Runway 15 has runway end identifier lights. PAPI is published on 15 and 33. Yellow cones mark the ends of runway 04 and runway 22. Runway 04/22 is closed during winter months, so plan on 15/33 as the main paved option. The airport also has a ground communications outlet on 121.725 through Minneapolis ARTCC and flight services. If you need clearance delivery and cannot get it through the outlet, Minneapolis ARTCC is listed in the remarks. Check the current Chart Supplement for any other local procedures before you go.
