Unknown — not enough evidence to call a runway

We don't know, and saying so beats guessing. No D-ATIS feed here — a voice ATIS/AWOS may exist; check the frequency. No ADS-B traffic data available.

3F5 field & runways

Forest Hill, Westphalia, Michigan. Field elevation 772 ft. Non-towered (NON-ATCT).

The FAA's variation of record is the number this field was surveyed against; the second is where north points now, from WMM2025. It is moving 0.008°/year west — about 1° every 125 years — which is why runway numbers eventually stop matching their pavement.

Runway data from the FAA NASR 01 Oct 2026 cycle. Where NASR locates both thresholds, the true heading is the bearing between them rather than NASR's whole-degree alignment. Magnetic is that heading against *today's* declination from WMM2025, not the field's variation of record — so it can differ from the chart by the gap between the two shown above. The number painted on the runway is the one ATC uses.
Runway	True	Magnetic	Number	Length	Surface
18	180.5°	187.0°	runway 19 by the rule today · 7.0° past	1,520 ft	TURF
27	262.0°	268.5°	matches	2,070 ft	TURF
36	0.5°	7.0°	runway 1 by the rule today · 7.0° past	1,520 ft	TURF
