Cargo for Anaktuvuk Pass

 

            We have suddenly been inundated with cargo for several villages; the biggest load is for Anaktuvuk Pass. Our Otters are on other flights and not available, so we will have to do with what we have and that is the Beaver.  So take this load up there and hurry back as you will have another waiting for you.  Pay attention on your approach.
