Copalis Beach

[Flyhound]

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.

Maules look so cute with little tires! Looks like a great trip!

I'm going to come down there and see you guys this summer. What lakes or airports are nearby?

[TomD]

Where do I start????

[Mountain Doctor]

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.
