Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Between August 2005 and July 2006. Analysis of historical satellite imagery shows the runway was intact in August 2005 but had been completely plowed over and returned to farmland by July 2006.

Reason for Closure

Economic and operational decision by the private owner. The airport was a private agricultural airstrip owned by Basl Bros Inc., a local farming corporation. The owners ceased aviation operations and reclaimed the land for its primary purpose: agriculture.

Current Status

The site of the former airport has been fully converted back into active farmland. There are no visible remnants of the runway or any aviation facilities. The land is part of a larger agricultural parcel and is used for growing crops.

Historical Significance

Basl Hill Farms Airport was a small, private airstrip that primarily served the agricultural operations of its owner, Basl Bros Inc. It consisted of a single unpaved, north-south turf runway. The airport was not depicted on most official aeronautical charts, indicating its use was restricted to the owner. Its operations would have likely included crop dusting, aerial application of fertilizers, and general transportation related to the farm's business. Its significance was purely local and tied to the farming enterprise it supported.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. As the land is privately owned and has been successfully integrated back into the owner's agricultural operations for many years, a return to aviation use is considered extremely unlikely.
