Two of the best inventions ever, skis and airplanes, together.

We are going to get over 2 feet of new snow in the Chugach above 3000' in the next 48 hours. More photos please...
Nice work!

If it looks smooth, it might be. If it looks rough, it is...www.bigtirepilot.com ...www.alaskaheliski.com
Yeah, I can sneak multi-million dollar aircraft in and out of hostile countries at night and in terrible weather, but I jacked up the photo upload....doh! I'll try to fix...
Edit: swapped to the normal size to upload in the BCP user's photo gallery now, I think the large size would be too big...Zane, if you want to edit to make it more right...
Hey Dutchman, what motor are you running?

O320 160HP with CS prop. Very nice combination that gets me in and out any place I want to go.

Come down to Cordova play...

Looking like a big reset with snows coming this weekend!
Thanks for posting!

The knik area had overcast and a lot of flat light that day so we ended up going west in the johnson pass area. Lot's more terrain over there I have never explored. Would be fun to go down to Cordova, maybe just park the plane and jump on the heli!
