Bumpy, but fun ride in the Canadian Rockies

Here is a video of a recent flight we made in the Rockies. We feel so fortunate to be living so near to this natural wonder, and to be able to see it from the air. The video took way too long to make, so this post will be short!

Enjoy!!

Flying the Rockies: VFR from Lethbridge, Alberta (CYQL) to Creston, B.C. (CAJ3) and return

It all came together nicely for us about 2 weeks ago (Nov 10th). Time, lack of immediate commitments, and even weather!

We hopped in JYMmie, and headed for Creston, BC, about 200 nautical miles (370 km) away.

Here is the route we followed:
