Portage Muni sits in Portage, Wisconsin at 824.8 ft MSL. It has two asphalt runways. The longest is 18/36 at 3,770 ft. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. No ILS approaches are published here.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. That puts the traffic pattern at about 1,825 ft MSL based on the field elevation. The airport sits in a part of Wisconsin where winter surface conditions matter. Runway 04/22 is not plowed during winter. Confirm runway condition with the airport manager before you go.
Portage Municipal Airport is the on-field FBO. It carries 100LL. 24-hour self-serve credit card fuel is published. Call (608) 566-1343 for current availability. Published remarks also flag obstacles near both runway ends on 18/36. Runway 36 has a power line near the departure end. It also has large hangars and a tree west of the runway that may create wind shear with strong northwest winds. For clearance delivery, Madison Approach or Departure Control handles the field when open. If they are closed, Chicago ARTCC is listed for clearance delivery. Check the current Chart Supplement before flying in if you need any noise or operational details beyond the published remarks.
