aka WA12 (the gateway WA12 was recoded to 2W1)
48.709558 -122.177657 in Deming, Washington (10 miles north of Acme which is 1.25 miles from cord location.
Airportnavfinder.com has 06S and WA12 both at the same cords but two different towns.. Deming & Cle Elum. Cle Elum is ~165 miles south of cord location.
Airnav.com when you punch in 06S you get WA12 with the same cords as above in Acme Wa. (closest town)
No Skyvector record of 06S but does have a record for WA12 but alast ... it's GPS cords are the same 48.709558 -122.177657 (N48°42.57' W122°10.66')
This airfield is visible as well maintained, mowed grass strip, with hangar in google maps, 1 mile west of the gateway location, just across the Nooksack river. Runway length and direction match a clearcut in the forest - its even labelled in google as Acme Field ...
So it does exist w/little doubt about its actual location and state.

Close enough ?
Please correct the FAA code meta-tag to WA12, drag the runway across the river and submit it to the gateway.

Infrastructure still visible.
68276 to parent 7818 should be Acme Field - 06S. Wed upload instructed me to upload to this ID .. but this shouldn't be here.
According to the FAA's ADIP, the airport (Acme Field, code: WA12) is operational (cf. https://adip.faa.gov/agis/public/#/airportData/WA12)
