L. M. Clayton Airport (IATA: OLF, ICAO: KOLF, FAA LID: OLF) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) east of the central business district (CBD) of Wolf Point, a city in Roosevelt County, Montana, USA. The airport covers 290 acres (117 ha) and has one runway. It is mostly used for general aviation, but is also designated to receive commercial service subsidized by the federal Essential Air Service (EAS) program. Reportedly, this made L. M. Clayton Airport the smallest airport in the 48 contiguous states with regularly scheduled air service.[3]

Scheduled air service at Wolf Point ended on March 8, 2008, when Big Sky Airlines (the designated EAS operator) ceased operation. Great Lakes Airlines has been given USDOT approval to take over EAS service between Wolf Point and Billings, Montana, although a start date for this service has not been established.[4]
