Orofino Municipal Airport (S68) is a small public-use airfield sitting just northwest of the town of Orofino in north-central Idaho. It offers a single hard-surfaced runway and modest general-aviation facilities, making it a straightforward stop for pilots exploring the forested hill country along the Clearwater River.
Orofino Municipal Airport is a small municipal field serving the town of Orofino, Idaho, at an elevation of 1,001 feet. It is a general-aviation airport with a single runway, used mainly by local and visiting light aircraft rather than any scheduled or commercial traffic.
The airport lies about one mile northwest of the town of Orofino, Idaho, on a compact 31-acre site (skyvector.com). No specific controlled airspace class is noted in available sources, and pilots should expect the field to sit within uncontrolled airspace typical of small rural Idaho airports, with terrain and forested hills surrounding the Clearwater River valley in which the town sits.
The airport has a single physical runway, 09/27, with a hard surface. Runway 09 is listed at 2,407 feet and Runway 27 at 2,504 feet; the slight difference in published lengths for the two directions should be noted by pilots planning takeoff and landing distances. There is no ILS approach available.
No communications frequencies are published for Orofino Municipal Airport. Pilots should be prepared to operate using standard self-announce procedures in the absence of any listed CTAF or air traffic control frequency, and there is no ILS or other instrument approach associated with the field.
Orofino Municipal Airport offers 13 to 14 hangar spaces, all privately owned or leased, along with a pilot's lounge that includes bathroom facilities, a rest area and a small kitchenette for the flying public. Six free vehicle parking spaces are available near the pilot's lounge building (cityoforofino.org). The airport is administered by the City of Orofino.
