South Cariboo Regional Airport (ZMH), also known as the 108 Mile Ranch Airport, is a primary general aviation facility located in the Cariboo region of British Columbia, approximately 7 miles (12 km) north of 100 Mile House. The airport features a functional passenger terminal building designed to support private aviation, corporate charters, and critical MEDEVAC operations. It serves as a vital infrastructure link for the region's resource industries and provides essential connectivity for residents and visitors to the interior Plateau.
The terminal infrastructure provides essential amenities for travelers and flight crews, including a dedicated public waiting area, restroom facilities, and a public telephone. A unique feature of the airfield is its immediate proximity to the 108 Mile Ranch community, with several resorts, restaurants, and an 18-hole PGA-style golf course located within walking distance of the terminal. The facility is a gated site, ensuring a secure environment for based and transient aircraft, with 24-hour pilot access provided via a secure entry system.
Operationally, the airport features a substantial 5,293-foot asphalt runway (15/33) equipped with pilot-controlled lighting and a Limited Weather Information System (LWIS) to support night and all-weather flight activities. The facility maintains a 24-hour self-serve fueling system for both 100LL Avgas and Jet A-1, accepting major credit cards.

South Cariboo Region / 108 Mile Airport (ZMH) operates as a crucial aviation facility serving the remote Cariboo region of British Columbia, Canada, near the historic community of 108 Mile House approximately 150 kilometers north of Kamloops. This regional aerodrome supports the area's resource-based economy including forestry operations, ranching, and mining exploration throughout the vast Cariboo wilderness where aviation connectivity remains essential for accessing remote work sites and isolated communities. The facility maintains a gravel runway suitable for smaller regional aircraft, bush planes, and charter flights serving British Columbia's interior resource industries and recreational users.
The airport lacks scheduled commercial passenger service and standard amenities including customs, immigration, security screening, and passenger terminals, reflecting its specialized role in general aviation and charter operations. Aircraft operations primarily support forestry transportation to remote logging camps, fire suppression during wildfire season, mineral exploration flights, and recreational aviation for hunters, fishers, and outdoor enthusiasts accessing pristine wilderness areas. Ground transportation requires pre-arranged private vehicles or charter services, as no commercial taxi or public transportation operates at this remote location.
For international travelers, Vancouver International Airport (YVR) serves as the primary gateway approximately 500 kilometers southwest with comprehensive global connectivity and full border services. Calgary International Airport (YYC) provides an alternative entry point 600 kilometers east. The region attracts seasonal recreational visitors for hunting, fishing, and wildlife viewing during summer months, while winter conditions can limit operations due to snow accumulation and extreme weather affecting runway conditions and aircraft performance in the challenging interior British Columbia environment.
