That's how we got to the put in.

Tim,


For several months I've been reading the journals of Richard L. Proenneke, who lived in remote Alaska in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. All of d*ck's supplies and visitors came in much like this. Growing up with a father who was an Army 'fixed-wing' aviator, I know all is good if #of take-offs equal #of landings
This looked to me like avery scenic spot, we'll look forward to the rest of the story sometime.

Best Regards
jim

Great video. Looks like a Cessna 180 or 185. I used to own a C180 and it was my favorite plane I've ever flown. It would haul anything I could stuff in it and still take off in 700 feet. My son did the Flathead last year. He said it was breathtaking!

This method was much easier (but costs a lot more) than the 15 mile hike over a 7000' pass to the other fork of the river a week later.
