Casco Cove Coast Guard Station is a former military airport located 1,481 miles (2,383 km) west of Anchorage, Alaska, on the Aleutian Island of Attu. It was closed on 27 August 2010. The Casco Cove Airport was a LORAN navigation station operated by the United States Coast guard. The Coast Guard personnel lived in a group quarters facility. There were no families stationed at Attu. All services needed for staff in this facility are available. Electricity is provided by U. S. Coast Guard Generator. Auxiliary health care is provided by U. S. C. G. emergency medical staff. Casco Cove is one of the most isolated and remote airports in the United States. Flying into and taking off from the airport was hazardous, as the weather is characterized by persistently overcast skies, high winds, and frequent cyclonic storms. Winter squalls produce wind gusts in excess of 100 knots. During the summer, extensive fog forms over the Bering Sea and North Pacific. The island is protected as part of the National Parks Trust territory and few people visit the island or area, as it is restricted. Gun emplacements for over twenty guns are still present around the airfield.
