FLIPY FLAPS!
I did a few trips to Sleetmute over the last few days, figured I'd show em' off.
This one is past Mount Torbert going west to Sleetmute.
The trip back, Mt. Torbert (if I remember properly) is that first "big" peak from left to right.
Looking back over my shoulder at the setting sun.
Another pic in towards the hills.
Looking out to the left a little bit - this is the highest point of pointy rocks on this trip, the rest isn't so cool.
Just passed between those peaks, here's the shady side.
This is looking at the Alaska Range from a distance from West Looking East. The first set of mountains after the hills towards the right side of the image are called the Revalation Mountains, they all look craggy and rocky and nasty, and they all have cool names like Golgotha, and The Apocalypse, I imagine if you were on the ground and trying to walk over them it'd put the fear of God in ya.
Here's that icewall off of Mount Torbert, I just thought it was cool, sorry for the grainy image.
This was taken at basically the same "point in space" as the others just at a different time of day.
McKinley and Foraker off in the distance.
The Beluga River and the village of Beluga. I used to fly a 207 in here around a million times a day. Kinda nostalgic to fly over it all.
Here's the Alaska Range a little further (about 60 miles or so) north of where Mt. Torbert is coming from Nikolai to Anchorage.
A little closer shot of those peaks. This is between Shellabarger and Simpson Pass - but we don't fly the passes at this company (we pretty much strictly go over the top) so I don't have to worry about impacting any of this terrain generally.
Finally, here's a random picture of Prince William Sound, don't remember if I posted this already, and am too lazy to look.
