Search flights from HCR to ANV
Yukon River Main Stem
Constant views of the powerful, silty waters of one of North America's longest rivers.
Anvik Bluffs
Rugged, forested hills and rocky outcrops that rise sharply on the east bank of the river.
Anvik Village Approach
A clear view of the historic Athabascan community and the confluence of the Anvik and Yukon rivers.
The right side is essential for seeing the village of Anvik during the descent. Morning flights provide excellent front-lighting on the bluffs. Keep an eye out for moose along the riverbanks in the early morning or late evening during summer.

Bonasila Floodplain
Vast stretches of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta transition zone with complex river braiding.
Tundra Ponds
Hundreds of reflective, dark-water ponds dotting the mossy landscape to the west.
Oxbow Lagoons
Perfectly preserved horseshoe-shaped lakes formed by the shifting path of the Yukon River.
Sit on the left for wide-angle views of the horizon and sunset colors if flying in the late afternoon. This side is better for observing the sheer scale of the Alaskan interior's flatlands and marsh systems.
