Allakaket Airport sits in Allakaket, Alaska. Field elevation is 441.1 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 05/23 is 4,000 ft long and gravel. No tower is published, so traffic calls go on CTAF 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the light-piston pattern at about 1,441 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation. The published remarks matter here. The rotating beacon may be hard to see from the north at low altitude. Runway condition is not monitored, so a visual check before landing is smart. Winter snow removal also happens here. Monitor CTAF for airport activity.
The field has medium intensity runway lights on 05/23 that are activated by CTAF. Runway 05/23 is also marked with lights and cones. This is a cold temperature airport. Altitude correction is required at or below minus 43 degrees Celsius. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport operator or call the field directly before you go.
