[color=#000000]If you like to fly float planes, be careful at Stewart. There is a lot of ice in Hecate Strait this time of year.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks Chuck. 
Yup, PFJ, hence the frozen over lakes and rivers, ground textures, SPBs, and airport scenery. FTX really does snow and ice well IMHO.

There are frozen lakes in the other FTX sceneries...........they don't look nearly as good as that icy river though (I assume it's a river, I'm not familiar with the area). Very cool 8-)
After looking again it looks like a "fjord"

Yes, it is a fjord. According to my FSWidgets in flight map, it is named Hecate Strait.
Wikipedia has a very interesting article on fjords.
