Indian Mountain LRRS Airport guide

Indian Mountain LRRS Airport (ICAO PAIM, FAA UTO) is a U.S. Air Force airstrip in the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area of interior Alaska. It sits at 1,273 feet above sea level, south of Utopia Creek and about 25 kilometres east-southeast of the village of Hughes.

The strip was built in 1952 with the Indian Mountain Air Force Station, a long-range radar site. The staffed radar station closed in 1983. Since then the airstrip has served maintenance crews visiting the unattended site. No support staff work at the field.

The airport is not open for public use, and there is no scheduled passenger service, terminal or ground transport. The single gravel runway, 6/24, measures 4,196 by 148 feet. Snow and weather can make the strip unusable in winter. No road connects the site to Hughes or any other community, so access is by air only, with permission from the operator.
