Gravel bar cub flying with Vanesa Edwards



We had a great weekend of Cub flying on big tires.  The skis came off.  The Bushwheels are on.  Enough snow is melted to have great times on the gravel bars.  Vanesa Edwards came up from Hillsboro, OR to enjoy a weekend of off-airport flying.

Deep snow at 6500 feet elevation

I rescued a C-185 that was stuck at the 6500 feet level of Knik Glacier.  We used N8977D to pack a runway for the Cessna.  Turned out to be a great and successful adventure.
