The approach into PAWD Seward, Alaska. Flying down from Anchorage over the Harding Ice Fields, out over the Pacific and then in to PAWD was simply breath taking.

Too many to choose from, these three may not be THE best but they just popped out of head:

a. Catalina Island - Not only it was above clouds when we visited but my cat's name is Catalina.

b. Leadville - Landing and take off there are not as difficult as I thought. Scenery is beautiful.

c. Friday Harbor - Just because I used to crash my airplane there in MS Flight Simulator, I have to prove to myself that I am better in the real world. East Sound is more interesting.
