The pilot was great, informative, and, most importantly, sociable. There wasn't a moment of silence; we conversed about each lake and creek we flew over. The views are beyond amazing and beautiful.

Ride was canceled due to high winds. Would love to go back and do the ride one day I’m sure it will be amazing but it was canceled last minute

We apologize for the cancellation, all of our tours are conducted "weather permitting." With our proximity to the mountains, we simply could not have conducted the flight in a safe manner. We take safety very seriously, opting for the smarter choice of staying on the ground instead.

It was amazing and the views were beautiful. Just wish it was a little longer of a ride rather than 15-20 minutes. Worth it though, and would definitely do it again. We felt safe the entire ride and the pilot made us feel comfortable.
