Great Slave Lake's East Arm is a world class scenic and geological
wonder featuring an abundance of islands, narrow channels and spectacular red cliff
drops.  Some cliffs are as high as 180
metres (590 ft) off the water and plunge several hundred metres into subterranean
cannons.  Great Slave Lake is the tenth
largest freshwater lake in the world covering an area of 27,200 km2
(10,502 sm2), the fifth largest lake in North America and also ranks as the
deepest lake in North America with recorded depths of 614 metres (2,014 ft).

The scenery is primeval; this remote paradise attracts boaters,
fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts from around the world.  Your flight will depart Yellowknife following
the shoreline of Yellowknife Bay to the main body of Great Slave Lake. We will
over fly the marine routes to the East Arm passing by wonderful anchorages and
passages such as Devil's Channel. We will continue up the Hearne Channel past
Utsingi Point and Tatheilei Narrows to access McLeod Bay. Flying parallel to
the Pethei Peninsula you will get a real appreciation for the scale of the
scenery. At Gibraltar Point we will cross McLeod Bay and over fly the Waldron
River before heading back towards Yellowknife.  

During the tour of the North East Arm of the lake you will cover
over 464 km (290 sm) and at the furthest reaches of the tour find yourself 200
km (125 sm) east of the city of Yellowknife while over Great Slave Lake’s East
Arm. 

We will find a suitable location to land during the tour to provide
you the opportunity of a brief stop-over in which to stretch your legs, take in
the views, and enjoy a snack. Light refreshments and snacks are provided on
this tour.  Feel free to bring some fishing equipment if you would like, or
to borrow some of ours so that you may have the opportunity to fish these world
class fishing-waters if you wish.  If you
are going to wet a line during our stop over don't forget to bring your fishing
licence.

The overland and return portion of the trip will give you a glimpse
at some of the countless lakes, rivers, and wetlands in our region that have
been carved into the Precambrian shield by successive glacier erosion.

As with our other tours you will get to experience flight on one of
our iconic de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver Aircraft not only providing you
with a raven's eye view of Great Slave Lake but also providing you with the
experience of taking a step back in time and enjoying a flight onboard a
classic aircraft.  Our Beaver aircraft
feature comfortable interiors, enlarged windows for easy viewing and aviation
headsets for all guests to provide easy communication between guests and the
pilot.  Each guest is will be seated at a
window seat.

Our pilots are very proud of their aircraft, their profession and
the region they fly throughout.  We
encourage our guests to ask as many questions as they wish throughout each tour.
 Our pilots will be more than happy to
answer all of your questions about their craft and the region they call home.
