Shungnak Airport sits in Shungnak, Alaska. Field elevation is 205 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 10/28 is 4,001 ft of gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.7. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. Runway headings are magnetic. Runway 10 is 117° magnetic. Runway 28 is 297° magnetic. Published remarks say water can pond on the runway during rain. Runway condition is unmonitored. A visual check before landing is a good idea. This is also a cold temperature airport. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 32 degrees Celsius.
Runway 10 has lights, plastic markers and PAPI. Medium intensity runway lights on 10 and 28 are activated by CTAF. There is also an uphill slope before the apron entry at runway 10. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field directly before you go. For a first trip, plan for gravel surface performance, cold weather effects and limited published approach support. Check the current Chart Supplement for any local notes before departure.
