Fraser River

The powerful, silt-laden river is the primary focal point, visible for nearly the entire duration of the flight.

Silt Cliffs

Stunning, pale erosion features along the riverbanks that resemble miniature badlands and desert canyons.

Kersley River Bends

Dramatic, wide S-curves where the river has carved deep into the plateau over thousands of years.

Chimney Creek

Rugged, rocky terrain where the creek meets the Fraser, often visible during the final descent into Williams Lake.

Dragon Lake

A beautiful lake just south of Quesnel known for its pristine waters and recreational fishing.

Cariboo Plateau

Vast, undulating stretches of evergreen forests that define the rugged interior of British Columbia.

McLeese Lake

A prominent blue landmark halfway through the flight, surrounded by dense timber and small lakeside settlements.

Cariboo Ranchlands

Expansive cattle ranches and golden hay fields that signify the transition into the ranching heartland.
