Things to Bring

On a fly-in trip less stuff is always better. There is only so much room in a float plane for you and your gear.  Your pilot also has legal load limits to follow. Each person can bring a maximum of 100lbs of gear.

We’ll send you an information package with a more detailed packing list upon confirming your booking to help you decide what to pack.

For those guests arriving via commercial air carriers, we can supply a linen package (sheets, blankets, towels, etc.) and also pick up groceries for you ahead of time. We can also provide large items like coolers, if needed. It’ll be waiting for you at dock the morning you are scheduled to fly out with us.

Here are some of the essentials to pack:

• Warm clothing (layers are recommended)

• Personal items, toiletries, medications and sunscreen
