Déjà Vu, Alaska - A Flying Short Film

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

Our simple but sacred tradition of making a short trip into the Alaska backcountry in early May continues... While we're at it, we join some local Cub drivers on the Knik river bars, fly some Cessnas into the Alaska range, and seek out some new spots to play. Just like last time, kinda. It all felt familiar, while it was happening. Maybe because... 170s in the Wrangells? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpOnFdunlYQ
