Maintained by NWT Power Corporation, formerly Northern Canada Power Comission. Handle a loaded twin otter no problem. Hump approximately 3/4 of the way down the airfield heading Southeast, good takeoff aid, fairly gentle, highest point maybe 2 metres above runway. Taking off to SE, Snair Hill rises sharply to 330 metres AMSL. In an emergency, help can be found at the main hydro site, which is north on the road at NW end of runway, approximately 12 to 15 km. Hydro site has direct communication to Yellowknife, N.W.T. . There were large antennae on the top of Snare Hill as late as the early 1990's, and as it is the highest point of land in the area I am sure there will be at least 1 tower there for many years.
We found the food to be a bit bland but serviceable. The staff were pleasant and shared tales of life in the bush. Was surprised to find omelets on the menu.
Hi! I know this was written a long time ago, so you might already know this: I know Lugga, his name is Darryl Nasogaluak and you can find his number if you google Tuktoyaktuk White Pages. Hope this helps!
About 15 years ago I met a man that worked at your airport named lugga, I don't recall his last name, I went on a hunting trip with him. My name is Billy Bankston, I live in Dallas Texas, e-mail is 1billyb@windstream.net, if you know this person, I would really love to say hello to him after all these years. If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it.
