Happy 79th Birthday to the legendary de Havilland DHC-2 Beaver! ✈️
Seventy-nine years ago today, this remarkable aircraft made its first flight in Canada, and it has since become one of the most iconic bush planes ever built.
From remote lakes and rugged coastlines to mountain valleys and wilderness airstrips, the Beaver has earned a reputation for reliability, strength, and an unmatched ability to take people and supplies where few other aircraft can.
Here in Alaska, the Beaver is more than just an airplane—it's part of our way of life. It connects communities, supports conservation and research, delivers hunters, anglers, and photographers to the backcountry, and creates unforgettable adventures in places few people ever experience.

Pavlof Harbor is simply one of those places where time slows down. The sound of the river, salmon moving upstream, and coastal brown bears going about their daily lives—it doesn't get much better than that. What a wonderful place to spend a morning, quietly sharing space with some of Alaska's true wild residents - Watching familiar bears continue to thrive is a privilege that never gets old.
