## Description

Perched at roughly 8,130 feet in the Sierra Tarahumara, the Bocoyna airfield beside Mexico's Copper Canyon serves tourism and general aviation rather than commercial traffic. It carries no IATA code and has no cargo terminal or scheduled freighters. Visitors use Creel as a gateway to Tarahumara hiking country and the celebrated Chepe railway. Air freight for the wider Chihuahua region is handled entirely through Chihuahua International Airport (CUU), about four hours' drive to the northeast. For forwarders the field holds no cargo role, functioning instead as a mountain-tourism reference point.
