## Description

Set beside Kluane Lake along the Alaska Highway in Canada's southwest Yukon, Burwash Airport (YDB) serves the small community of Burwash Landing and the gateway to Kluane National Park. Charter flights, supply runs and mineral-exploration work make up most movements, with no scheduled freight service. Cargo for the area arrives overland by highway or by air through Whitehorse (YXY) and onward via Vancouver (YVR). For freight forwarders the road link is usually faster and cheaper than flying. The runway sits below the St. Elias Mountains, home to Canada's tallest peaks.
