Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which is 5,766 ft MSL. That matters here because the field is already high elevation. Performance planning deserves a close look before departure or arrival. Runway 04 and runway 22 both have displaced thresholds. The published remarks also call out obstacle clearance slopes to those displaced thresholds. There is a 5-foot fence and an 8-foot berm near runway 04. Runway end identifier lights, the PAPI on runway 04 and the medium intensity runway lights are activated by using the CTAF. The beacon is also CTAF-controlled.

Shupe Flying Service is on the field. It carries 100LL. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC. The airport also has a nonstandard segmented circle made of painted tires. During the agricultural season, aircraft operate from the gravel runway southeast of the paved runway. A first-time pilot should plan for the elevation. Plan for the displaced thresholds. Plan for the lighting controls before going in.
