No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use standard light aircraft pattern planning unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. Runway headings are listed as magnetic in the airport data. The field is short. That matters here more than anything else. Plan for a careful performance check before you go.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival if you need current field support. Published remarks list Brandon Culley as the manager contact. The remark gives a USDA email address for that contact. If you need operational details beyond the basics here, verify them in the current Chart Supplement before departure. For a first visit, treat this as a simple, small-airfield arrival. Keep your scan tight. Expect turf operations. Use the published CTAF and make your position reports early.
