RWY 30

Stanford/Biggerstaff Fld sits in Stanford, Montana at 4,327.6 ft MSL. It has two runways. The longest is 12/30 at 4,200 ft asphalt. The other is 07/25 at 1,600 ft turf. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field sits in high terrain by normal lowland standards, so density altitude will matter on warm days. Expect takeoff and climb performance to be a real factor.

Published remarks say the runway 30 PAPI is active. Medium intensity lights are installed on 12/30. They are controlled by the common traffic advisory frequency. The turf runway 07/25 has tall grass. Conditions are not reported, so check with the airport manager before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake Air Route Traffic Control Center. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and service availability with the airport operator or by calling the field directly before arrival.
