Our
Cessna Caravan was following the highway and the pipeline north out
of Fairbanks when about 100 miles out the clouds broke up, the sun
came out, and by the time we landed in Bettles it was down right warm,
toasty, and not a cloud in the sky. We were all antsy to continue
on with the next leg of our trip but the Alaskan lollygag factor equated
heavily into our travels. After three and a half hours we finally
had a plane and were ready to continue. |

After
a breath taking flight over the Brooks Range, Bill, our pilot, banked
the Dehaviland Beaver sharply over to the left and swooped down between
two peaks and began gliding towards a couple of tiny little lakes
that were right on Kutuk Pass. |
