VAN TREESE
MONTE VISTA, CO
Monte Vista, Colorado is served by Van Treese, identified as 0CO9, a privately owned, non-towered airfield. The field features a single runway, E/W, with a gravel and dirt surface measuring 2,600 feet long and 50 feet wide.
All operations occur under visual flight rules, as the field has no published instrument approach procedures. The field lacks a control tower and published frequencies, so pilots coordinate traffic using standard see-and-avoid procedures. Pilots can purchase 100LL avgas here. Prior permission from the owner is required before landing, as this is a private-use field.
The field sits at 7,613 feet above mean sea level. Density altitude is a consideration during warm weather flying at this elevation.
