I don't even have a jet boat, but how far up the turnigan can people get? Can they make it to turnigan lake? I guess with unlimited fuel you could go as far as there was water, but whats realistic? If you are familiar with the country around turnigan lake and willing to discuss a few things, I'd really love a PM from someone to have a private conversation.

From the Kechika, there is a waterfall. I think you can get that far with a jet boat. I've been as far as the Dall River. You do need a lot of fuel. It's like a 4-5 hr boat ride from Skooks.

I know a couple guys that have made it into Dall lake in the spring while Grizzly hunting.

Not far past the Dall junction is Windy Point camp and just upstream is the falls. Tough portage for a jet
