Watford City Muni sits in Watford City, North Dakota. Field elevation is 2,135.1 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 12/30 is 6,550 ft long on concrete, which gives you plenty of pavement for most GA work. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here, so check the current FAA Chart Supplement for the latest approach and airport details before you go.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local procedures or current airport guidance say otherwise. Watford AeroService is on the field. It carries 100LL and Jet A. Full service fuel is available from 0800 to 1700 Monday through Friday. Self-serve fuel with credit card is available outside those hours. The runway lighting is preset low from dusk to dawn. Use CTAF to raise the intensity or activate the PAPIs on runways 12 and 30.
A few operational items matter here. A 306-foot tower sits near the runway 12 end. A 167-foot lighted hill is near runway 30. Deer and antelope are also reported in the area. After winter storms, confirm airport conditions with the airport manager or the FBO before departure. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC.
