Aerial
Picture Tour of Sandpoint and Lake Pend Oreille
There are at
least three ways to see the City and Lake Coeur d'Alene: one by helicopter and
two by plane. I have been told these are smaller planes, but the tours are
great; can't say about the chopper. The choices aren't limited to Lake Coeur
d'Alene; Hayden Lake and several smaller bodies of water are minutes away.
Sandpoint Seaplane
Service offers a tour around Lake Pend Oreille, but also can fly you over
Lake Cocolalla, Twin Lakes, Spirit Lake, and the magnificent Priest Lakes. Lake
Coeur d'Alene offers significantly more urban scenery, but still has the feel of
wilderness. Lake Pend Oreille is much more pastoral, and Priest Lake is awesome.
These pictures
are from a 45-minute tour over Lake Pend Oreille.
