Tatitlek PAKA → Merrill Field PAMR
After a solid wall of grey for the first half of the flight, the weather finally broke towards Anchorage. I got no clearance for Anchorage International in the small Cirrus, so I treated myself to a low pass over the city and put her down at Merrill Field.

Icy Bay 19AK → Merle K. (Mudhole) Smith PACV
Always following the Pacific coast, I continue heading north. The region is already quite rugged and sparsely populated. The airports here have to struggle with their own unique problems:
“Erratic winds. Moose may be on or near rwy. Large flocks of migratory birds in vicinity of airport during season.”
Happy Landing!

Yakutat PAYA → Icy Bay 19AK
Continuing the glacier watching with a flight over the Malaspina Glacier: this ice mass covers an area of about 2,500 to 4,000 km² (depending on how you measure). This is three to four times the size of Berlin, Germany 😲

Tanis Mesa AK69 → Yakutat PAYA
Today (and tomorrow) it's all about watching glaciers! The exciting thing is that we're now so far north that the glaciers go all the way down to the sea.
The Cirrus SR22 has a large windshield which provides a nice field of view – perfect for today's tour.

Seattle–Tacoma International KSEA → Boeing Field KBFI
What do you do if the start and destination airports are just 5 nautical miles apart?
Of course, you take a little detour over Mount Rainier and watch the sunrise from up there!
But first, you’ve got to get up there …
