Common questions about KLLJ

What charts are available for KLLJ?

3 current FAA charts for Challis, including 1 instrument approach. All are free to download as PDFs from this page, from the 6 August 2026 cycle.

What are the radio frequencies for KLLJ?

CTAF 122.8. Full civil VHF list, with sector notes, is in the frequencies table on this page — from the FAA NASR subscription.

How long is the runway at KLLJ?

Challis has 1 runway. The longest is 17/35 at 4,601 ft by 60 ft, asphalt. Full runway dimensions, lighting and approach aids are listed on this page.

Does KLLJ have an ILS approach?

No ILS is published. In total KLLJ has 1 published instrument approach, of which 1 are RNAV (GPS).

How high is KLLJ?

The field elevation is 5,075 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 KLLJ a towered airport?

No — Challis 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.

Are these KLLJ charts current?

They are from the FAA cycle effective 6 August 2026, which is superseded on 3 September 2026. We publish each new cycle on its effective date. They are for flight simulation and reference only — not for real-world navigation.
