RWY 32

Hooper Bay Airport is in Hooper Bay, Alaska. The field elevation is 19.5 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 14/32 is 3,300 ft long and gravel. There is no control tower. CTAF is 123.0.

No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless current local guidance says otherwise. Runway 14/32 has medium intensity lighting controlled by CTAF. Runway end identifier lights and visual approach slope indicators are installed on both ends. That helps at night or in marginal visibility.

The published remarks matter here. A cataloged obstruction exceeds a 45 degree slope near runway 14. There is also a 35 ft VOR located 1,750 ft south of runway 32. Runway condition is unmonitored. A visual inspection before use is a good idea, especially on a gravel strip in Alaska. No on-field FBOs are listed. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator before arrival if you need current services or local operating notes.
