Great Bear River
The flight follows the path of this crystal-clear river which flows west from the lake to the Mackenzie.
McConnell Range
Rugged peaks of the Franklin Mountains provide a dramatic northern backdrop to the river valley.
Bear Rock
The most famous landmark in the region, a massive limestone cliff standing at the river confluence.
The right side is essential for seeing the Great Bear River's winding course. Ensure you are looking forward during the descent to catch the best angle of Bear Rock. In winter, the contrast between the frozen river and the dark rock faces is particularly striking.

Keith Arm
Aerial views of the westernmost reach of Great Bear Lake immediately after takeoff from Déline.
Boreal Wilderness
Vast stretches of untouched spruce and pine forests typical of the Sahtu region's taiga landscape.
Mackenzie Mountains
The jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Mackenzie range are often visible on the distant southwestern horizon.
Choose the left side for sweeping views of the northern wilderness and the distant mountain ranges. In late autumn, look for the golden hues of the larch trees. Early morning flights provide excellent backlighting for the distant peaks to the south.
