I took a side trip to Whittier yesterday. After a morning flight up to 11,000 feet to take a French guy up to see the mountain I zipped down to Montana Creek to pick up Chuck in his 1958 Cessna 172. We went down to Anchorage to pick up a friend of his from New York to do some sight seeing.
We toured around prince william sound before dropping Chucks friend off at his ship in Whittier.

Here's what it looks like from the ground. We weren't sure about the length taking off so we used part of the access road for part of our take off, just to be sure. It ended up being fine. This is one of those one way in/ one way out type of places, theres a mountain behind me. So you take off over the ocean, and you land over the ocean. I dropped Chuck off at his place, stayed for dinner with him and his wife and blasted off back to Talkeetna.

That Prince William Sound looks like a post card. Well, except for the wing and strut.
