PAXK is at Paxson, Alaska. The field elevation is 2,653 ft MSL. There are no published runways in the current data set, though the Chart Supplement remarks reference runway 13/31. The longest runway length is unknown from the facts provided. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if that matches current local practice and the current Chart Supplement. The remarks matter here. The runway surface is not maintained. No winter maintenance is provided. Only ski-equipped aircraft are permitted. The runway is also used as a road. The width between willows on runway 13/31 is 60 feet. Special use airspace information is available on 125.3 or 126.3, or by calling the number in the Chart Supplement. For a first-time arrival, verify current field conditions before departure. This is a high-elevation Alaska strip with no tower and no published ILS, so weather and surface condition checks are part of the planning. The FAA weather camera at Isabel Pass may help with a broader look at the area.
