Crescent Valley Airport (U74) sits in Crescent Valley, Nevada. Field elevation is 4,790.8 ft MSL. It has two dirt runways. The longest is 5,424 ft on runway 05/23. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the pattern at about 5,790.8 ft MSL based on the listed field elevation.
This is a rough field. The published remarks call out soft ground on the east 3,000 ft of runway 23, rough surface on the first 1,600 ft of runway 05/23 and cattle on or near the runways. Runway 14/32 has earth ridges and berms along the edges. Weeds cover over half of runway 14/32. Uncontrolled vehicle access is allowed on all runways. So a careful taxi and landing scan matters here. There are no on-field FBOs listed. For clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568.
