PARK COUNTY AND CITY OF LIVINGSTON AIRPORTS

The City/County Joint Airport Board in Livingston, Park County, Montana was first organized in 1960 as a municipal airport available for private pilots and small planes.  A Joint Resolution between the City Commission of Livingston and the Park County Commissioners established a 5-member Board to operate and control the airports at Mission Field (southeast of Livingston), Wilsall, and Gardiner, Montana. All airports are publicly supported in many different ways. Today, Mission Field is home to several small-to-intermediate-sized aircraft whose owners rent hangars from the Airport Board. There is also a ground lease rental program upon which individuals may construct their own hangars to fit their needs. Rentals and ground leases are also available at the Gardiner airport. The Wilsall Airport is used primarily for farm/ranch industries. Wilsall is also home to the largest model airplane fly-in in Montana!
