RWY 01

Lewelock Airport is in Lewelock, Alaska. The field elevation is 55.8 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 3,284 ft long and surfaced with gravel and dirt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. UNICOM is 122.95.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport sits in a low coastal Alaska setting, so expect weather and surface conditions to matter more than at a paved field. The runway condition is unmonitored. A visual inspection before landing is a good call. Published remarks also say the runway surface and shoulders can be soft and muddy when wet. There are multiple ruts near the edges and cracked ruts near the thresholds. The safety area beyond the thresholds is soft sinking sand. Treat that area as an emergency overrun only.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. The rotating beacon and the medium intensity runway lights for 01/19 are activated by the CTAF. The wind indicator may be unreliable, so do not rely on it alone for the landing decision. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any local operating notes before you go.
