Carey Airport (U65) is in Carey, Idaho. The field sits at 4,789 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 08/26 is 2,650 ft of turf, so plan for soft-field performance and watch your rollout. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston planning unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport has a full segmented circle with non-standard windsocks on both sides. Published remarks also call out concrete runway edge and threshold markers. Be alert for sprinklers on the runway. There is a 30-foot hangar near the field. Trees 30 to 80 ft tall sit 900 to 1,200 ft from the end of runway 08. That makes the 08 end a place to stay sharp on climbout and landing path.
The published note recommends landing runway 26 and taking off runway 08 when wind conditions allow. That fits the terrain and obstacle picture here. No on-field FBOs are listed. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly before you go if you need local services. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568.
