First Landing on the Ice on Wheels this year!

Sunday the 28th of April I flew out to Wien Lake via Dune and East Twin and landed on the ice on wheels. It was a beautiful day! The Alaska Range and Mt. Denali were visible in all their glory.

The remnants of the runway cleared earlier for Evert's Air to land was still visible and in perfect shape. Otherwise, the ice was still fast to the shore and accumulations of snow were still present in drifts on the lake.

Dune Lake did not appear to have safe Ice, but the Twins looked fine. I couldn't resist adding a candid selfie of the author.
