A few field notes matter here. Deer and antelope are reported on and near the airport. There is also a 195 ft tower 1.4 NM northeast of the runway 17 threshold. Airport surface condition is unmonitored, so plan for a careful look on arrival. Runway 17 and 35 have PAPI. Medium intensity runway lights are on 17 and 35. They are controlled by CTAF. If you need clearance delivery, contact Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568. This is a high-elevation strip, so performance planning deserves attention, especially on warm days.
