Wasilla Airport sits in Wasilla, Alaska. Field elevation is 353.7 ft MSL. The airport has 2 runways. The longest is 3,700 ft on 04/22, which is asphalt. Runway 04S/22S is 1,690 ft on turf-gravel. There is no control tower. Airspace determination is pending, so check the current FAA Chart Supplement or the current sectional before you go. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless local procedures or the Chart Supplement say otherwise. Crowley Aviation Fuels is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Self-service fuel is available 24 hours. That is useful for early arrivals or late departures.
The published remarks matter here. Runway 22 has nonstandard markings with threshold panels. Runways 04S and 22S also have nonstandard markings. They use cones and reflective threshold markers. Runway condition is not monitored, so a visual check before use is smart. Runway 04S/22S is for ski and tundra tire equipped aircraft. Brush up to 3 feet tall is reported near the runway 22 end. The airport is restricted to aircraft with approach speeds less than 121 knots. Ultralights also operate in the area, so expect mixed traffic.
