Which side of the plane to sit from Sloulin Field International Airport (Williston) to Denver International Airport (Denver)?

Theodore Roosevelt National Park
Shortly after takeoff from Williston, view the dramatic eroded canyons and painted canyons of the North Dakota Badlands.
Black Hills & Devils Tower
Depending on the specific flight path, you may see the dark, forested uplift of the Black Hills and the distant silhouette of Wyoming landmarks.
Colorado Front Range
The star of the show; enjoy panoramic views of Longs Peak and the snow-capped peaks of the Rocky Mountains on the descent.
Wyoming Mining Operations
Aerial perspectives of the massive open-pit coal mines in the Powder River Basin area.
Request a window on the right for afternoon or evening flights to catch the 'Alpenglow' effect on the Rockies. Have your camera ready 15-20 minutes before landing, as this is when the most dramatic mountain vistas appear as you descend toward Denver.

Missouri River Basin
Expansive views of the winding Missouri River and the fertile agricultural plains of the Dakotas.
Patchwork Prairies
Geometrically satisfying views of circular irrigation patterns and vast ranch lands across Nebraska.
DIA Terminal Roof
As you bank for arrival, look for the iconic white peaked tents of the Jeppesen Terminal to the east.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It provides a peaceful view of the sunrise over the Great Plains and is better for spotting the airport infrastructure during the final approach phase.
