I posted a video a few days ago showing the trailer of Ice Pilots NWT, a reality show the follows the team at Buffalo Airways in Northern Canada. Since then I have had some people asking about my back country flying so I thought I would share a few photos I have taken over the years. The cool thing about backcountry flying is that many times the only way to get into these remote locations is by plane or helicopter. Sometimes you can pile a bunch of gear on horses and trek for a week but an airplane is far more efficient.
This photo was taken in the Chilcotin region of BC very close to some of the most amazing mountains and lakes that BC has to offer. The mountain in the background is Mt. Tatlow (10 049 ft) that sits at the lower end of Chilko Lake and Taseko Lakes. The airplane is sitting next to a 4000 foot grass airstrip on Elkin Creek Ranch.
