Next weekend we are going on our trip for 2 weeks. There will be 4 of us in 2 planes.....a Maul and my 185. On our way up will hit most of the good spots, Toad River, Scoop Lake, Braeburn, Ft. Selkirk as well as making pit stops in Whitehorse and Dawson City.

We will camp most of the way. I am quite familiar with the route to Dawson but I am looking for any assistance on any hidden gems to stop at on our way down the Mackenzie River Valley from Tuk to Yellowknife then to Fort Chip.

Any advice would be great!

Holy crap bat man......finally figured out how to post a photo.....thank god my piloting skills are slightly better than my computer skills!!

Plane has finally got the big boots on and on Tuesday the very expensive annual will be done and ready for the trip.

Now I can post lots of photo's from our trip!

Kevin, you guys leaving from Edmonton? Wheres your first overnight gonna be? I may buzz over and join you if I may.

David,

We will be leaving from Edmonton. If things go well our plan is to spend the first night north of Muncho Lake on the Liard River somewhere.

More than welcome to come up but quite a distance for you.

Kevin

Right on Kevin. You guys aren't messing around getting places then. Have a safe flight!

Sounds like an awesome trip! Post lots of pictures!

I'm sure you guys are aware of the big fire burning southwest of tumbler ridge. Its making for very smoky conditions around my place and Grande Prairie. Up at 1000' AGL its about 2 mile vis.

Thanks for the update David.

We will have to watch out for that one as well as some in the NWT.

Hopefully we don't have to detour very far if they get worse.
