STAMPEDE sits in Kantishna, Alaska. The field elevation is 1,852 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 15/33 is 1,960 ft long and turf. The runway heading is magnetic. No ILS approaches are published. CTAF is 122.9. There is no control tower.

The published pattern altitude is not listed, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern only if that matches current local guidance and the current FAA Chart Supplement. The runway surface is grass with small shrubs. Trees and brush line both sides of the strip. Wildlife is also reported in the area. The runway length is described as 1,960 ft from trees to trees, so plan conservatively.

This is not a maintained or monitored runway. Commercial or business use is prohibited unless you have a permit with the National Park Service. Private rotorwing use is also prohibited except for emergencies. There are no on-field FBOs listed. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement and contact the airport operator before you go. In a place like this, the main issues are surface condition, obstacle clearance and wildlife on or near the runway.
