Approach coverage at Kotlik

Kotlik’s single 4,400 ft gravel runway has an RNAV (GPS) approach to each end. The compact procedure set therefore provides instrument coverage in both runway directions rather than concentrating it on one end. With no airport diagram and no second runway, the published material reflects a straightforward layout centred on runway 02/20.

Nearby chart coverage

Mountain Village has an equally compact chart set, while St Michael has slightly broader coverage. Emmonak and St Mary’s each have the largest nearby sets, though only by two charts over Kotlik. The Bethel and McGrath sectional charts add wider visual-navigation context beyond the airport-specific instrument procedures.
