## Description

Snow, spruce and the long ribbon of the Alaska Highway frame Beaver Creek Airport, perched at Canada's westernmost settlement on the Yukon–Alaska border. Scheduled airlines and freight do not serve YXQ; the strip handles charters, medevac and resupply flights for a community of barely a hundred. There is no cargo terminal and no air-side customs clearance here. Freight reaches the area by road along the highway, or by air through Whitehorse (YXY), the territory's only meaningful gateway. For logistics professionals, this is a lifeline strip, not a cargo point.
