Guliker Field

The airport was a private airstrip, likely owned and operated by the Guliker family for personal use. The closure was not due to any single major event like an accident or military conversion. The most probable reason is the cessation of private operations by the owner, which could be due to retirement from flying, sale of the property, or simply no longer having a need for the airstrip. The subsequent conversion of the land back to full agricultural use supports this conclusion.

The site of the former airport has been fully reclaimed for agricultural use. Satellite imagery of the coordinates shows a cultivated farm field. A faint, discolored outline of the former north-south grass runway is still visible within the field, but there are no remaining airport infrastructure, such as hangars, markers, or a windsock. The land is actively being farmed.

Guliker Field had local, rather than national, significance. It was a classic example of a private 'farm strip' common in rural areas of Canada. Its primary function was to support general aviation activities for its owner. Operations would have consisted of small, single-engine aircraft such as Cessnas, Pipers, or similar models used for personal transportation, recreation, or agricultural surveying. It was not a commercial airport, had no scheduled flights, and did not have facilities like a terminal or fuel services for the public.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Guliker Field. As it was a private airstrip on private land that has since been converted back to its primary agricultural purpose, the likelihood of it being re-established as an airport is extremely low to non-existent. Any reopening would be solely at the discretion and expense of the current landowner.
