The flight started great then the weather got pretty bad so we had to land on a remote lake and setup camp. Good thing that the temp is only -5*C and a nice tent heater.

Comments always welcome! Cheers!

Thanks for all the nice comments. You can't actually come to a complete stop on the lakes or you will sink. They are just white water textures to make them look more realistic. But you can make it look good.

If I would have come to a complete stop I would sink though.
