Grand Forks County Aviation West of the Red River Valley
Larimore Municipal Airport serves the portion of Grand Forks County that lies west of the immediate Red River Valley metropolitan influence, connecting agricultural communities to the broader aviation network. As Grand Forks International grows its commercial service, smaller facilities like Larimore provide continued access for pilots who want a quieter general aviation environment without the commercial traffic at GFK.
The presence of multiple private airstrips in the Larimore area—including Bakke Airport, Kleven Private Airport, and Kyllo Airport—reflects the density of agricultural aviation activity in this part of Grand Forks County. These private facilities complement Larimore Municipal by providing farm-level access that reduces ferry distances for aerial applicators and personal aircraft operators. Together they create a comprehensive aviation network for western Grand Forks County.
