MFC0053 Kwinamass Khutzeymateen - Terrace to Stewart (CYXT-CZST)
We are heading into rugged country- Departing Terrace Airport (CYXT) and heading to Stewart Airport (CZST). Throughout this journey we
are in heavier forest surrounded by mountains.
This is “Khutzeymateen Country”! Home of the grizzlies!
We’ll be weaving around the Kwinamass River and also exploring some of the Khutzeymateen National Park area: where the grizzlies roam.
Glaciers here we come!
Expect stops at some of more rugged RTMM locations and small strips of Kwinamass Khutzeymateen. There is a lot to view on these flight
legs so watch the terrain.
The legs in this trip are relatively short (around the 100 nm range) but all legs have two mid-stops and they are no easy locations to
land. Do you best and enjoy some of the ruggedness of this area: Western BC.
Recommendation of Aircraft: A single engine standard Amphibian: Perhaps an ultralight: IE: Icon A5 or a light single engine
aircraft: C182, DHC2, DHC3, C185 Amphibian. (Must be amphibian).
For the helicopter pilots out there, a less rugged or lighter helicopter will do just fine to be able to navigate this excursion but has
to have floats.
I’m using one of the old faithfuls in this trip: C185 amphibian.
Have fun and enjoy the trip into Kwinamass Khutzeymateen country.
