RWY 33

Goheen Airport (W52) sits near Battle Ground, Washington. Field elevation is 292 ft MSL. It has one runway. The longest is 15/33 at 2,565 ft on turf. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. The field is close enough to Portland airspace that you should pay attention to your clearance and arrival planning. For clearance delivery, the published remark says to contact Portland Approach at 503-493-7545.

Several runway notes matter here. Runway 07/25 is for emergency use only. Runway 33 has a 500-foot displaced threshold. Runway 15 has a nonstandard single-light visual approach slope indicator on both sides. The runway 15/33 surface is uneven and has an incline. There is also a road crossing runway 07/25 at the midpoint. A berm sits just right of the 07 end. A fence is near the 25 end. There are marker balls on a power line near the 07 end. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify fuel and services with the airport operator or the FBO directly by phone before you go.
