FSX Gett'n High

[N330DG 44]

A short flight from Aspen (KASE) to Leadville (KLXV), which is is North America's highest public use airport at an altitude of 9.934 feet.

Departing Aspen - already a high altitude airport at 7.837 ft.

 

Following Roaring Fork River on our way to Independence Pass. Make sure to take all the right valleys 😉

 

Independence Pass (12.093 ft) brings non turbocharged pistons near to their service ceiling.

 

Twin Lakes come into view. Left and right is really high terrain with a couple of 14'ers.

 

Turning north at Twin Lakes

Turning final for RW 16 at Leadville
