THE RUNWAY
The Wolf's Fang Runway is 3000m (8200’) long and 60m (196’) wide. Note that the runway edge markers are actually 70m apart from the centre line. Any snow accumulations or berms are pushed at least 10m beyond the edge markers giving a minimum strip width of 90m.
The runway is aligned into the slope of the local terrain and consequently, the prevailing wind - 175° True. The runway has an overall longitudinal slope of 0.3% rising to the South.
