Burns Lake Airport (CYPZ) sits at Burns Lake in British Columbia. The field elevation is 2,343 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 11/29 is 5,060 ft asphalt, which is the longest runway on the field. This is an unattended airport, so plan for self-briefing and verify current details before departure.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts block, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston aircraft unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. With elevation above 2,300 ft MSL, density altitude can matter on warm days. Check takeoff performance carefully. The runway headings are 115° and 295° magnetic. That matters when you are lining up in wind or planning a crosswind landing.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts. For attendance schedule, call 250-698-7364 or 250-692-0220. If you need current fuel or ramp details, contact the airport operator or the field directly before arrival. Use the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updated operational notes, lighting, or local procedures.
