I don't think I'll ever get tired of this spot. I met another Maule pilot (TomD) at Copalis Beach today. It'll be a couple of days before I can wipe the smile off of my face.

RATS!
Great video.
I wanted to go with you all and planned on it but scrubbed because of fog in the morning.
I'm over 2 hours away and didn't want to make the run if the beach was fogged in.
PLEASE keep me in the loop for next time gentlemen.
Tammy and I instead went to McCall.
Density altitude was over 8,000'! Severe clear CAVU and light winds. Smooth ride back and forth at over 10,000'.
We had a picnic on the shore of Payette Lake and a nice walk on the nature trail and a fun swim and ride on rented paddle boards. Not a disaster we could not go to the beach but that is a priority for me soon.
Thanks so much for the excellent video.

Great pics Tom.
Thank you for inviting me. Hopefully next time. I really enjoy these adventures and hanging out with you guys.
I love the Northwest.
McCall was awesome also, but the runway was paved.
