Aerial view · KCLW
No FAA diagram publishedThe FAA does not publish an Airport Diagram (APD) for KCLW — most non-towered fields, heliports, seaplane bases, and private strips fall here. Below: aerial imagery showing the actual field, runways, taxiways, and surroundings.

Runways at KCLW
2 runway ends on file. Longest: 4,108 ft. Max gradient: 0.08%
| Designator | Heading | Length | Width | Surface | Lighting | Gradient |

| 34 | 335° | 4,108 ft | 75 ft | ASP | Yes | 0.08% |
Source: in-app airport database (runway lengths + headings), OurAirports for surface, width, lighting. Gradient computed from FAA NASR runway-end elevation deltas (the published RWY_GRAD field is empty in 99.99% of NASR rows; we derive it from the elevations the FAA does publish).
