Provincial Road 287 (PR 287) is a 57.8-kilometre-long (35.9 mi) east–west highway in the NorMan Region of Manitoba, providing the only road access to Clearwater Lake Provincial Park, The Pas Airport, Cormorant, and via its spur PR 384, Moose Lake.

Route description

PR 287 begins as a paved two-lane highway at the locality of Prospector at an intersection with PTH 10, within Clearwater Lake Provincial Park. It heads east through the park, travelling along the southern shoreline of Clearwater Lake for several kilometres to pass along the north side of The Pas Airport. After curving through some wooded areas, the highway returns to the lakeshore, passing several lakeside cottages at an intersection with PR 384, which leads to Moose Lake. At a fork in the road, where PR 287 takes a right, the pavement ends, with PR 287 leaving the Provincial Park heading northeast through inland wooded areas of Cormorant Provincial Forest as a two-lane gravel road. The highway travels along the southern shoreline of Cormorant Lake for several kilometres before entering the hamlet of Cormorant, immediately making a right onto Fenner Street to cross a bridge over the narrow portion of the lake before coming to an end in the centre of town at an intersection with Station Road, directly beside the Winnipeg-Churchill Train (Hudson Bay Railway), which the highway ran parallel to for the majority of its length.
