My First Real Life Bush Flight Over the Cascades - Hair Raising Stuff!

This flight originated in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada close to the U.S. border and the North Cascades National Park. The route took us over Harrison Lake and up through Golden Ears National Park. Pretty hair rasing stuff flying so close to the mountain tops as you can see in the video! The light aircraft we were flying in was a Piper Cherokee and a pretty old one at that. Our pilot was very skilled though as you have to be flying around mountains. Mountain flying is extremely dangerous and there is a lot for a pilot to watch for and take into consideration.

I will be uploading a complete version of this flight in the near future if viewers show enough interest. There were a lot of pretty amazing lakes we flew over that aren't included in this clip and the landing was bumpy and awesome.
