The field has a single paved runway and a quiet, high-desert mountain setting.
💡 Local Tip
Because the field sits at 5,500 feet, lean the mixture for taxi and expect noticeably longer takeoff rolls on hot summer afternoons; early-morning departures usually offer cooler air and calmer winds. Also check for wildlife near the runway, as the surrounding area is open rangeland.
