Atlin, BC flyin!

[NimpoCub]

This is NOT a SuperCub flyin, so: CAUTION, there will be other aircraft types!

I know some of you know about this, as I've seen you lurking on BackcountryPilots.org but I've seen no mention of it here.
Atlin is a remote community in the extreme NW corner of BC, in fact there's no road access there FROM BC. You haft'a drive in from the NWT or Ak.
Anyway, they're throwing a bash this summer (end o' June & first of July). Check it out, tempt yourself, c'mon up & buy me a beer!

Logan,

You be lying again...

You drive through the Yukon to get to Atlin not NWT!

Ha, so show up everyone, and we can enjoy beer from logan... If we get enough folks helping, he might be able to carry all his fish home!

OOPS
I reckon you're right, wanna hire me as your navigator?

I'm hoping to catch some lakers, and REALLY hoping to get some walleyes. I haven't caught/eaten one of those for about 15+ years. All we have around here are different flavors of trout.

I know Lakers are there, but them other fishys?????

I may be driving, and towing a boat... If I dont go to JC
