Sandy Lake North Basin
A vast, deep blue expanse of water that dominates the view immediately after takeoff from ZSJ.
Boreal Canopy
An endless carpet of black spruce and jack pine, showcasing the scale of the Northern Ontario wilderness.
Muskeg Patterns
Intricate bog and peatland formations that create unique geometric shapes visible from lower altitudes.
Uninhabited Shorelines
Rugged, rocky coastlines of Sandy Lake that have remained unchanged for millennia.
Sit on the left for the best morning light when flying east; the sun will be behind you, illuminating the lake colors. Since this is a very short flight, keep your camera ready from the moment of takeoff as the plane reaches cruising altitude almost immediately.

Finger Lake View
A distinctive, elongated lake just south of the flight path that provides a sharp contrast to the larger Sandy Lake.
Keewaywin Approach
Detailed views of the remote Keewaywin First Nation community as the aircraft descends toward the airport.
Glacial Kettle Lakes
Dotted throughout the landscape are perfectly circular small ponds formed by retreating glaciers.
The right side is ideal for the final approach into Keewaywin. In the winter, this side offers a stark, beautiful view of the ice roads that connect these remote communities to the rest of the province.
