These shots all taken over the Okanogan National Forest near the North Cascade foothills...roughly following FR 420 between Starvation Mountain and Old Baldy which, are the two highest peaks in the first shot. Old Baldy is obscured by clouds.

Settin' her down......

.....not so gracefully. A wind gust got me a little slideways just after touchdown. I'm pretty sure I was on one float for a second or two

Nice shots Chuck. Glad to see you are enjoying the C185. As to your landing, like Henny Youngman answered when asked how to get to Carnagie Hall, "practice, practice, practice."
