Flyin’ high in the winter sky

This past warm, sunny Sunday was an ideal Cariboo winter day and folks of all ages were happy to be outdoors soaking up the sunshine. The pilot of this ultralight aircraft was no exception as he/she spent a good portion of Sunday afternoon practising take-off and landings (the aircraft was fitted with ski-type landing gear) on Chimney Lake. That action and the subsequent fly-overs gave all the ice fishermen something to watch as they waited for the fish to bite.
