Approach coverage on one runway

San Luis Valley Regional/Bergman Field has published approaches to both ends of its sole 8,521-foot runway. The four IAPs collectively offer ILS and localiser guidance, two RNAV (GPS) options and VOR coverage, giving the field several instrument procedure types despite having only one runway alignment. The airport diagram supports ground planning for that single-strip layout.

Regional chart context

Taos Regional matches KALS with six published charts. Monte Vista Municipal, Astronaut Kent Rominger and Spanish Peaks Airfield each have four, while Stevens Field has the thinnest nearby set with three. The Denver Sectional adds broader VFR context around Alamosa beyond the airport-specific instrument procedures.

How high is KALS?

The field elevation is 7,539 ft. At that height the air is thin enough to matter: take-off and landing distances are longer than the same aircraft would need at sea level, and the effect worsens as temperature rises. The approach charts carry the altitudes that apply.

Is KALS a towered airport?

No — San Luis Valley Rgnl/Bergman Fld has no control tower. Traffic co-ordinates on a common frequency rather than with a controller, which is listed in the frequencies table on this page.
