Death Valley National Park
Aerial views of the lowest point in North America and the surrounding Panamint Range.
Sierra Nevada Mountains
The eastern edge of this massive range, showcasing snow-capped peaks in winter and spring.
Pyramid Lake
A striking turquoise endorheic lake located in the high desert of northwestern Nevada.
Mount Shasta
The crown jewel of the flight; a nearly 14,000-foot volcanic peak that dominates the horizon.
Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument
Lush, forested ridges as the plane begins its descent into the Rogue Valley.
Choose the left side for the most dramatic views of Mount Shasta, which usually appears about 15-20 minutes before landing. On morning flights, this side is also shielded from the direct glare of the rising sun, allowing for better photography of the desert landscapes.

Upper Klamath Lake

Mount McLoughlin

The right side is excellent for seeing the Las Vegas city skyline if the flight departs to the north or west. During the latter half of the flight, the right side offers better views of the high desert basins and the eastern Cascades. Late afternoon flights will have warm, golden lighting on this side.
