Tuluksak Airport (PALT) sits in Tuluksak, Alaska. Field elevation is 35.8 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 15/33 is 3,300 ft long and surfaced with gravel and dirt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use standard traffic pattern judgment for light piston operations. Verify the current Chart Supplement before you go. The published remarks say runway condition is unmonitored. Plan on a visual inspection before use. The medium intensity runway lights on 15/33 are activated by CTAF. The rotating beacon is also activated by CTAF.
There are no on-field FBOs listed for PALT. If you need fuel or service, contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF for current availability before arrival. Weather cameras are available online through FAA weather cams. This is a low-elevation Alaska field with a single gravel-dirt runway, so surface condition matters. Check the latest weather, runway condition and local traffic picture before you commit.
