Flightseeing - Kobuk Valley National Park to Kotzebue

Continuing our bush plane flight back to Kotzebue, Alaska, from Kobuk Valley National Park, we flew over the Squirrel River and the Kiana Hills. Views to the south included the Kobuk River, the Hockley Hills, and the Village of Kiana on a bluff above the confluence of the Squirrel River and the Kobuk River. We visited in late August 2022.
