The approach offers expansive views of the Cascade Mountains and the fertile Sumas Prairie as the aircraft descends into the heart of the valley.
While both sides offer world-class mountain scenery, the right side provides more consistent views of iconic peaks in Banff and Glacier National Park, along with the beautiful Shuswap Lake system.
The left side offers a stunning panorama of the Southern Rockies and a clear view of the iconic Mt. Baker during the descent into Abbotsford.
