Alaska Adventure: Flight Tour over East Lake Iliamna

We highly recommend a one hour flight tour around the East end of Lake Iliamna.
It's the largest fresh water lake in North America and is a scenic 20 minute flight from Port Alsworth.

   You'll depart Port Alsworth on Lake Clark...
...and fly South, passing by the amazing Lake Kontrashabuna.
As you fly over the mountain pass between the lakes, look for the Alaska grand canyon.
A few villages settled on the East end of Lake Iliamna. It's beautiful all year long, but the cold and windy winters make living in such a remote location difficult.
In the summer the islands on the east end of the lake are incredibly lush. 
   AIf you fly around the right ones, you'll see rare freshwater seals sunning themselves on the beaches.
Here's the gorgeous Eastern shore of Lake Iliamna!
The flight back will be just as beautiful. Photos never do it justice, you gotta come see it yourself.
