Snare River Airport

Snare River Airport (ICAO: CEV9) is a small, remote airstrip located in the Northwest Territories of Canada, near the Snare River area northwest of Yellowknife. It serves as a critical access point for communities and operations in this sparsely populated boreal region where road access is extremely limited or nonexistent. The airport primarily supports bush flying operations, resource industry activities, and essential supply runs to the surrounding wilderness. Like many remote northern Canadian airstrips, it plays a vital role in connecting isolated communities and supporting logistical needs in an area where aviation is often the only practical means of transportation. The facility is a basic airstrip without commercial terminal infrastructure, typical of remote northern Canadian aerodromes registered in the Transport Canada database. It does not have scheduled commercial airline service.
