Pattern altitude is not published. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local procedures say otherwise. That puts the pattern near 1,025 ft MSL at this field elevation. No right-traffic exception is published. No tower is on site, so self-announce and sequence with other traffic as needed. Keep the gravel surface in mind during taxi, takeoff and landing. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement before flight for any local updates.
