T42 sits in Ruth, California at 2,781 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 13/31 is 3,500 ft long with an asphalt surface. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern around 3,781 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport is closed at night. It is also intermittently closed in winter because of snow. Check before you launch.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan to confirm services with the airport operator before arrival. Published remarks also note high terrain in all quadrants. That matters here. Expect a mountain airport profile with limited margin for weather, density altitude and terrain clearance. There is also a 4-foot fence near runway 13, offset left and right of the centerline. For clearance delivery, contact Oakland ARTCC. If you need current operating status, call the Trinity County Transportation Services office in Weaverville.
