    Re: Fly In Hunt Costs

    Are these per mile costs per passenger or total? We have a rough idea of what the max amount we are willing to spend.

    SSS, we certainly don't want to spend more than we have to, that's for sure. That said it will only be two of us and we will not be packing heavy. So a smaller aircraft is certainly an option

    Muncho Lake (Urs) is called Liard Tours. Contact him thru that web site and he will send you his price list for the lakes he will fly you into. If the lake you want is not on his price list he will tell you if he can land on your chosen lake and what the cost will be. Will also give you co-ordinates for lakes if you do not know names and locations. Urs is very helpful but as others have stated very expensive. He does have an Otter for bigger loads also which might be useful when flying out, may not need extra trip out for weight. For a close guess on other outfits and lakes use google earth. Measure distance from Dease Lake or Watson Lake to the lake you would like to go to and times that by $9.50 per air mile then multiply that number by 4. You will be close to actual cost. One thing to remember is that if you are flying out of Dease Lake they fly out of the south end. Will make a difference for measurements.

    You're chartering the plane, If the the plane has, lets say a 1200 lbs. weight limit, thats you, your partner and the pilot and your gear =1200 lbs. You pay for every mile or kilometer the plane is in the air. So there and back and there and back. Pretty simple.

    you would have to use one of the charter companies out of Rupert, that's what we do when flying in and out of Rupert to Stewart for work, Inland Air or Ocean Pacific Air
