Dubois Municipal Airport (DBS) is a small public-use general aviation airport serving Dubois, Wyoming, in the upper Wind River Valley near the Absaroka and Wind River ranges.

The town-owned field mainly handles private, charter, and recreational aircraft.
💡 Local Tip
At about 7,000 feet elevation, density altitude is a real performance factor—especially on warm summer afternoons—so lean for altitude, calculate takeoff distance, and consider an early departure.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is a short drive from downtown Dubois, so a rental car, hotel shuttle, or pre-arranged ride is the most practical way to reach town. Public transit and rideshare options are very limited in this rural area, so arrange ground transport before you arrive. Drivers can access the airport from US-26/287, and mountain weather can make the drive from Jackson or Riverton longer than expected.
