This is the mouth of the Methow River wher it's path merges with the Columbias'.......you may recognize it from the FSX mission "Resort supply"

Wells Dam, and a pretty good depiction of the fish ladder there.

Flying over the river near Chelan Falls. That's Lake Chelan off of the starboard wing, Patchz
The other 50 some miles of it are around that corner....and that other corner....and that other corner that you can't see.

Steep turn to make my final, after my fly over.

Great shots Chuck, especially the last one.
I did not realize I had been to Lake Chelan before until I got to the north end and landed at Stehekin State 6S9. I have Kenny Fox's scenery for it for FS9, as well as Concrete Muni, Darrington, Israel's Farm, Williams Airpatch, and Ross Lake. I'm finding a number of places I've been before in FS9, but had no idea of the names of landmarks because I did not have FSWidgets then. Having a map showing terrain and landmark names on a second monitor makes a world of difference. Don't know how I got by without it before.
