OCT 12th Alaska fly in/campout No 2
Any interst in getting an end of season Maule fly-in to a back country strip somewhere? I was thinking the Beluga Lake strip as there is plenty of parking/camping room. Just a thought.... Winter is coming!
You have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming a pilot. You can't do both!

I was just planning on an informal kind of thing. Beluga Lake is close to Anchorage for those who don't want to camp or for those who it will be too cold... Not really set on a location. Anyone have any beter ideas? What dates work best for people?
No need to wait on wheels! Beluga is a great floatplane lake!

I would be interested. Beluga would be good for ducks if the timing is right. For those who like, there is a little strip on the river a few miles up at Olson Good practice for tight place with plenty of length. I go in with my '68 M-4 no problem. Earlier in the season it's great silver fishing but a few griz try to steel from you.

Latitude: 61.4008333 - Longitude: -151.5922222. That is the lake address. It is about 45 minutes west of Anchorage and is near the base of Mt. Spurr. If you fly over the lake, the strip is on the alluvial fan of the river draining the glacier. The strip is very obvious and will be hard to miss.

Unfortunately, the zoom photos are winter and you can't see the strip! The strip is on the northwest corner of the lake.
