SHALZ FLD sits in Colby, Kansas. The field elevation is 3,188.2 ft MSL. It has three runways. The longest is runway 17/35 at 5,110 ft on concrete. The other two are turf, with runway 12/30 at 2,660 ft and runway 04/22 at 2,600 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.8.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston aircraft unless the current FAA Chart Supplement says otherwise. High Plains Aviation is on the field. It carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Call them at (785) 460-4438 for current service details.
The published remarks matter here. Runways 17 and 35 have runway end identifier lights, precision approach path indicators and medium intensity runway lights that are controlled by CTAF. Seasonal agricultural operations also occur at the airport. That means you should expect local traffic and field activity at certain times of year. For clearance delivery, contact Denver ARTCC at 303-651-4257. If you need current operating details, verify with the airport operator or the FBO directly before arrival.
