Rocky Mountain National Park
Spectacular views of Longs Peak and the Continental Divide shortly after departure from Denver.
Craters of the Moon
The vast, dark basaltic lava fields of southern Idaho create a striking lunar-like contrast with the surroundings.
Snake River Plain
Follow the deep basalt canyons and agricultural grid patterns carved by the Snake River across Idaho.
The Palouse
Hypnotic, rolling green and gold hills of the Inland Northwest during the descent into Spokane.
Choose the left side for dramatic sunset views on evening flights. Early in the flight, watch for the transition from the Great Plains to the high peaks of the Front Range. Seats behind the wing are recommended to capture the scale of the Idaho lava flows without obstruction.

Lake Coeur d'Alene
A beautiful blue landmark with jagged shorelines visible about 15-20 minutes before landing.

The right side is best for morning flights as it avoids the harsh western glare. Keep an eye out for Lake Coeur d'Alene shortly before landing, as the flight path often passes just south of this scenic area. Seasonal snow cover in the Wind River Range is best viewed from late autumn through early summer.
