This month's navaid is located in the United States.  

Its name is the same as the nearby regional airport, but with a different identifier. 

They are both named after the river that flows through the area, which itself has the name of an unprincipled, deceitful individual.

That's a stratovolcano in the distance

This Navaid is located near a small town in the U.S., and named after that town.  It shares an identifier with that town's airport, which has no scheduled airline service.

The name is a "constructed name" of two nouns; things you might find in a rural area.

It's near a staircase, and "Sevier" turbulence is possible!

This month’s navaid is in the United States, inside Class B airspace. 

It’s named after the county where it is located.   That county is named after a river that flows through it, itself named after a French fur trapper.

It has the same identifier as a large general aviation airport located five miles away.  That airport has a distinctively shaped main ramp.

This Navaid is in the United States.  Its name indicates the quality of the atmosphere at that location.  It's also spelled similar to that of a long-running U.S. car model name.
