If you have ever been to Southeast Alaska you know that float planes are a way of life there.  They are used to transport people and good all over the area.  Most are commercial planes  but living in Alaska with your own floatplane to explore the wilderness, that is a sportsman's dream! To be able to fly to a remote lake and fish for salmon, steelhead, or trout. Fish that may not have seen an angler for weeks, or months....  From that same lake you could hunt for big bucks on a remote mountain that rarely sees boot tracks. Flying over bears on the beach, moose in a valley, or mountain goats on a rocky ridge. You would get to see the wild areas and animals that make Alaska special. The possibilities would be endless.....
