Need help finding airport near Athabasca

I'd like to fly out and climb Athabasca, and others, this spring. The closest airport is listed as Jasper-Hinton but that doesn't register on any US flight intineraries. What's the nearest major airport? Or can anyone recommend the best way to get there from the Eastern US? Thanks for your help.

Yep, I flew into Calgary a few years ago. Then drove to Banff and the Columbia Icefields.
