Lower Monumental State Airport is in Kahlotus, Washington. The field elevation is 813 ft MSL. It has one runway, 01/19, which is 3,300 ft long and gravel. 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 operations unless current published guidance says otherwise. The runway headings are magnetic. Runway 01/19 is listed with rough surface conditions. The published remarks also note an emulsion layer that crumbles. They also mention abandoned weeds in gravel portions. Soft spots are part of the picture too. That is not a place to assume normal braking or rollout.
The airport remarks also call out multiple power lines about 0.4 mile north-northeast of the field. Vehicles, pedestrians and animals may be on or near the runway. No winter snow removal operations are provided. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so plan to verify support before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Chinook Approach at 509-542-4209. If approach is closed, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. Pilots should check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any additional operating notes before flying in.
