Traffic pattern

Pattern altitude is not published. For light piston operations, use standard 1,000 ft AGL unless local procedures or ATC say otherwise. At this non-towered field, pilots self-announce and self-sequence in the pattern. Use normal traffic pattern discipline and watch for opposite-direction traffic on the single runway. The field elevation is 1,532.8 ft MSL, so pattern work will sit above that elevation. No right-traffic exceptions are published. No special pattern notes are published.

Every end, one page

Each runway end has its own page with wind component, traffic pattern geometry and ILS for that specific direction.
