Search flights from MSA to ZPB
Muskrat Dam Lake
A stunning panoramic view of the primary lake basin immediately after takeoff from MSA airport.
Shield Rock Outcrops
Glacial scarring and granite ridges of the Canadian Shield are highly visible from the low cruising altitude.
Sachigo Lake Settlement
A clear view of the remote community infrastructure and the airport terminal as the plane banks for its final approach.
Sit on the right for the best perspective of the landing sequence. This route is often flown at very low altitudes (below 10,000 feet), providing exceptional detail of the terrain. Morning flights provide excellent side-lighting for photographing the lake's texture.

Watch for the shifting colors of the muskeg in autumn; the proximity to the water table creates vibrant reds and yellows. Since the flight is extremely short, have your camera ready immediately after the landing gear retracts.
