Expose yourself to the fun and challenges of backcountry flying! Meet pilots who enjoy escaping to Colorado’s backcountry and view featured aircraft on display including a Cessna 185, Cessna 180, Aviat Husky A1B and more!

Backcountry flying includes landing on grass or dirt strips, or dropping in to remote areas with a specially designed bush plane or seaplane. It can even include the challenging mountain flying that Colorado is famous for. Backcountry flying provides access to camping, hiking, fishing and more for those who enjoy being in the great wide open.
