Main River Channel
The broad, powerful flow of the Kuskokwim River directly beneath the flight path.
Kuskokwim Mountains
Rolling hills and prominent ridges that define the northern horizon.
Oxbow Lakes
Perfectly formed U-shaped lakes created by former segments of the river.
Upper Kalskag View
Aerial perspective of the village settlement just before descending into the airport.
This is the best side for photography of the river's main channel. Watch for river barges during the summer months when the water is high. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the northern mountain ranges. As you approach KLG, you will get a clear view of the transition from the riverbank to the village infrastructure.

Kuskokwim Meanders
Intricate river loops and southern sloughs carving through the landscape.
Kilbuck Mountains
Views of distant, often snow-capped peaks rising to the south.
Tundra Ponds
A vast network of thousands of small glacial ponds reflecting the sky.
Choose this side for expansive views of the Alaskan wilderness. During the late afternoon, the low sun creates high-contrast shadows across the tundra, highlighting the complex drainage patterns of the delta. In winter, keep an eye out for moose trails near the tree lines.
