November 28, 20178 yr Lodge flying pretty much comes to a stop. But aviation and barges are the life blood of this state. Aviation goes year round and as winter comes the risk factor in flying in this state goes up exponentially. While the summer there are a lot of lodges that need supplies and customer transportation the winter is busy with sea food industry. Then restocking in spring.
