re: Name Change
Reply to @Desert185: Somebody needs to send an update to the FAA then, because the official location is a bit off, and they still have the runway as 12/30. They do have the name change, however.

It is now called Castle Mountain with the same 48AK identifier (Private). Freq is 122.95. Slight downhill landing west. The runway is actually 10/28 instead of the 12/30 listed. Grass in good condition.
