Nemiscau Airport guide

Nemiscau Airport (ICAO CYHH) lies on the Route du Nord at kilometre 294, in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of northern Quebec. It sits at an elevation of 244 m (802 ft) and has one gravel runway, 09/27, measuring 1,524 m (5,000 ft). Wikipedia describes it as one of the better gravel runways in the region.

Hydro-Québec built and operates the airfield to serve its Nemiscau and Albanel substations. It is a private airport, and a ground radio operator controls the runway lights, so one must be present for night operations. The village of Nemaska, a Cree community of 832 people on Lake Champion, is about 7 km from the airfield.

Air Creebec flies scheduled service to Chibougamau and Montréal-Trudeau at the discretion of Hydro-Québec. The gravel Route du Nord is the other way in.
