6wt Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Flying into the Upper American…the owner of the lodge (I should say former owner, since he just sold it before I came) could land a Helios in a pothole in the road…and he’s in his mid 70’s…I have a couple videos of him landing and taking off in these really small pieces of water, but don’t know how to load it here… 1 Link to comment

6wt Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 The fog began to lift just in time to take off to Iliamna…however, when we got there, we almost had to turn around since the smoke had reduced the vis to one mile… 2 Link to comment

6wt Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 Heading to my favorite river in WA for a few days to fish for cutties & bows. You can’t drive there, requires a boat trip (or small prop plane/helicopter), then rent an e-bike (no car rentals) to get around. Total stoke on the east side of the Cascades… 2 Link to comment
