Jenpeg Airport — Jenpeg, Canada

Jenpeg Airport, coded ZJG, serves the small hydroelectric station community of Jenpeg in northern Manitoba, Canada, situated near the Nelson River. Built primarily to support Manitoba Hydro operations and the nearby Cross Lake First Nation, the airport handles light aircraft traffic essential for staff rotation and emergency access in a region without year-round road connections. Jenpeg's gravel runway is typical of Canada's remote northern airstrips, designed for utility rather than volume. The surrounding boreal wilderness and subarctic climate make air transport indispensable for supplies and medical evacuations. ZJG exemplifies the network of small Manitoba airports that keep isolated hydro and Indigenous communities connected to the provincial south.
