Right Side Highlights

🌾

The Palouse

The unique rolling hills and agricultural patterns of Eastern Washington, creating a textured green and gold landscape.

🏔️

Grand Teton Range

The unmistakable, jagged skyline of Wyoming's most famous mountains is visible to the west during the mid-flight phase.

⛰️

Wind River Range

A high-altitude wilderness featuring Gannett Peak and numerous glaciers visible in central Wyoming.

🌲

Rocky Mountain National Park

Spectacular views of Longs Peak and the Continental Divide as the plane begins its descent toward Denver.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Teton and Wind River ranges. During the descent into Denver, this side frequently offers a panoramic view of the Rocky Mountain Front Range and the downtown Denver skyline.

🌊

Lake Coeur d'Alene

A stunning view of Idaho's famous blue lake and its forested peninsulas shortly after departure.

🏔️

Bitterroot Mountains

Rugged, snow-capped ridges along the Idaho-Montana border offering a vast wilderness panorama.

🪨

Bighorn Basin

The wide geological depression in Wyoming, characterized by desert landscapes and distant mountain silhouettes.

Choose the left side for morning departures to see the early sun illuminating the Bitterroot Range. This side is also better for spotting the confluence of rivers in Western Montana. Avoid if you prefer to see the highest peaks of the Rockies.
