OF THE NORTH CASCADES.

Often called “America’s Alps,” the mountain scenery of the North Cascades features dozens of glaciers, alpine lakes, and plunging waterfalls. Experience this world-class mountain scenery from the air.

WE ARE OPEN

In accordance with Washington COVID-19 Guidelines, masks for pilot and passengers are required.

Due to Covid-19, gift certificates issued in 2019 and 2020 will not expire.

Located in the heart of the
North Cascades

Snowking Aviation is based in Concrete, Washington, near the boundary of North Cascades National Park on Scenic Highway 20, just 95 miles north of Seattle. Spectacular Mt. Baker, Mt. Shuksan, and the Glacier Peak Wilderness are just over the hill. With wilderness so close, our scenic flights are able to take visitors deep into the mountains.

The Art of Aerial Photography

What is a scenic photo flight?

Not only is the experience of flying extraordinary, the rare access to remote, rugged places can inspire all photographers and film-makers, from beginner to pro. Scenic photography flights focus on the art of photography and videography. Our airplanes are capable of slow flight and are maneuverable for close-up perspectives. We are sensitive to lighting and camera/airplane positioning, and visibility is excellent in all directions.
