Re: Camping Trip

Cool pics. I have been to most of those places, at least the ones in WA ID MT, there a lot closer to my place than yours. I have a plane that looks identical to the little red and white one I kept seeing in your shots. Thought for a moment I was at all those places when you were. Or maybe the guy borrowed my plane when I was gone. :)

Thanks for sharing.

Re: Camping Trip

Very nice show! I enjoyed watching.

Interesting about breakfast at Nampa, Idaho. Did you eat at the little restaurant at the field? I have been there several times and like it.

Re: Camping Trip

Great slide show. No better way to spend your time than flying adventures like that.
Really enjoyed it.

Stan, mine is a 57 with a P Ponk O-470, Sportsman cuff and 206 nose fork

Breakfast at Nappa was really good, lots on the menu and you overlook the runway from upstairs, good place to stop.

Cavanaugh Bay is truly the 5 star backcountry strip. We based there several nights and got to look a lot of the country over, loved Sullivan Lake and Magee. We were lucky you guys had the fly-in going on as we got to met a lot of nice people and we slipped in on the Saturday night dinner :)
