Located at an elevation of 2343 ft MSL, this medium airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region. The airport supports various general aviation and regional transportation needs in this rural area of British Columbia.
Flying Conditions
Situated at a moderate elevation of 2343 ft, Burns Lake Airport experiences typical interior British Columbia mountain climate conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential variability in weather patterns due to the surrounding mountainous terrain.

Notable Features
The airport features a single runway (11/29) with a 5000-foot asphalted surface, providing adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft operations. Its geographic location in central British Columbia means surrounding terrain includes mountainous and forested landscapes that can influence local wind patterns and visibility. The airport's coordinates (54.376400, -125.950996) place it in a strategically important transportation corridor.
Approach Considerations
Runway 11/29 offers flexibility for arrivals and departures based on prevailing wind conditions.
