Airport contact
Remote fly-in gravel strip serving Poplar River First Nation on Lake Winnipeg's east side, with no year-round road access; daily scheduled service operated by 100%-Indigenous-owned Amik Aviation and by Northway Aviation (both based at St. Andrews Airport, CYAV) using Cessna Caravans and similar STOL equipment. At 2,500 ft the runway is below the 3,000 ft threshold Manitoba considers adequate for medevac/air-ambulance aircraft, and the airport has been identified by the province as a candidate for relocation/reconstruction since it cannot be certified to Transport Canada standards at its current site.
