Miley Memorial Field (BPI)

Miley Memorial Field (BPI), also known as the Big Piney-Marbleton Airport, is a premier general aviation and corporate aviation facility serving the high-altitude plateau of Sublette County in western Wyoming. Situated at an elevation of approximately 6,974 feet, the airport features a primary 6,803-foot asphalt runway (13/31) and a secondary 3,301-foot turf runway. The facility serves as a vital transportation and logistics node for the region's prominent natural gas industry, providing an essential aerial link for corporate jets and technical crews servicing the sprawling Pinedale Anticline and Jonah gas fields. The airport's terminal building is a modern, single-story facility that functions as a high-standard Fixed-Base Operator (FBO), owned and operated by the Big Piney-Marbleton Airport Board. It is specifically designed to meet the needs of professional flight crews and private passengers, offering a range of amenities including a comfortable visitor lounge, a specialized pilot planning room with a weather briefing kiosk, and a dedicated snooze room for crews on long cross-country missions. As an uncontrolled airfield, the facility operates without a dedicated air traffic control tower, allowing for rapid 'ramp-to-vehicle' transitions that are highly valued by time-sensitive business travelers and industrial contractors. Amenities at BPI are tailored for the general aviation community, including 24-hour access to free Wi-Fi, a professional conference room for business meetings, and private shower facilities. The FBO provides comprehensive aircraft support including 24-hour self-service fueling for 100LL and Jet-A via credit card, as well as on-site catering coordination and ground handling for large turboprops and business jets. While there are no formal on-site restaurants, the terminal features a refreshment area with snack vending and coffee, and is located just a short drive from the dining and services of the Big Piney and Marbleton communities. Ground transportation is well-supported by on-site courtesy vehicles for visiting pilots and pre-arranged car rental services through Enterprise, providing quick access to the nearby Wind River Range and the various industrial sites across the basin.
