Mount McKinley Scenic Flight (Part One)

Shot on June 29, 2007. This video is shot from the copilot's seat of a single engine otter. The video begins as we take off from the Talkeetna, Alaska Airport and fly over the Susitna River. There was literally not a cloud in the sky as we flew all around Mount McKinley. We started by flying over Ruth Glacier, then the Great Gorge and Sheldon Amphitheater. It was then over North Fork Glacier and around Mount Silverthrone.

I've been to Talkeetna...flew with a bush pilot back in the 70's in a stripped down Cessna 180 supercharger.
