After stopping for some more fuel at Wrangell, I decide to chance that the weather will clear enough for a VFR landing into Bell Island Hot Springs - the alternative is an ILS landing into Ketchikan if the weather prevails, so it's no big deal:
Topped up, I leave Wrangell & head south again, the weather doesn't seem so bad once you get above the cloud layer - I could swear the cloud was thicker than that:
Getting near Bell Island Hot Springs now, & although the weather hasn't got any better - it hasn't deteriorated either:
Time to duck below the hood & see whats going on down here - rain, yuck!! Still ok for a visual approach though. The hot springs are just in the second valley on the left there:
Destination (& hot food/beer) in sight. This weather doesn't know what it's doing:
well I don't care if it is still raining, & I don't care if the dock is waaay back down by that boat - that hot tub's got my name all over it!!:
Catch you all later - i'm off for a well earned
