Search flights from SLC to BIL
Great Salt Lake
Aerial views of the massive saline lake and Antelope Island immediately after takeoff from SLC.
Bear Lake
Known as the Caribbean of the Rockies for its distinct turquoise water, visible on the Utah-Idaho border.
Grand Teton National Park
The dramatic, jagged spires of the Teton Range are clearly visible mid-flight.
Yellowstone Lake
The largest high-elevation lake in North America, marking the heart of the first National Park.
Absaroka Range
A rugged mountain range on the eastern border of Yellowstone with sharp volcanic peaks.
Sit toward the front of the plane to avoid wing obstruction. The Grand Tetons appear approximately 25-35 minutes after takeoff; have your camera ready as the plane often flies very close to these 13,000-foot peaks. Winter flights provide the most dramatic contrast with heavy snow cover on the granite spires.
