Cottonwood Muni (S84) sits in Cottonwood, Idaho. Field elevation is 3,474 ft MSL. The airport has no published runways in the facts block here, so verify the current runway layout and lengths before you go. It is an unattended field with 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 unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at 4,474 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The published remarks matter here. Clearance delivery is handled through Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. Runway lighting for 07/25 is activated by CTAF. The rotating beacon is also CTAF-activated.

The remarks also list obstructions near both runway ends. Runway 07 has fences and a post close to the departure end. Runway 25 has fences and roads close to the departure end. That makes a current preflight review important before any arrival or departure. No on-field FBOs are listed, so contact the airport operator directly or call on CTAF for current services before you launch.
