Monache Meadows is in Lone Pine, California. The field elevation is 7,874 ft MSL. It has one runway, 16/34, which is 2,383 ft long and surfaced turf-dirt. The airport is not towered. No ILS approaches are published.
For pattern work, the published pattern altitude is not listed. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL assumption for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts you in high-elevation mountain-country operating conditions. Expect performance to matter. Density altitude can be a real factor here, especially on warm days. The runway is short. Plan conservatively and leave margin for go-arounds.
There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts, so verify current services with the airport operator or call the field directly before arrival. There are also no published remarks in the provided data. If you need current operational details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flying in.
