Travel
Travel logistics between our Outpost camp and King Salmon
are much simpler compared to our Safari
camp. Because of the helicopter transport to/from camp and
camp's closer proximity to King Salmon, you are far less likely
to experience weather delays (compared to the Safari camp).
So, under most conditions, you can expect travel to/from camp
and King Salmon on Saturdays with a high degree of confidence.
To King Salmon
We prefer that guests travel all the way to King Salmon, AK
and overnight the Friday before your departure to camp. You
may stay in Anchorage Friday night but must arrange your air
travel for the next morning (Saturday) for an arrival in King
Salmon NO LATER THAN 10:00 a.m.
Once in King Salmon, contact our charter company, Egli Air Haul at (907) 246-3554 to let them know you have arrived in King Salmon, or you may press #20 at the airport call terminal. If you are overnighting in King Salmon Friday night, call your lodging operator for shuttle service from the airport.
To Camp
The next morning (Saturday), Egli Air Haul will shuttle your party to their hanger then transport you from King Salmon to the camp via helicopter. The flight duration is a ½ hour.
Departing King Salmon
Egli Air Haul will return for you the following Saturday.
Your flight back home that departs from King Salmon on that
Saturday should be arranged to leave NO EARLIER THAN 4:30p.m.
Very Important
Soft-side luggage is mandatory (two medium duffle bags is
better than one large bag). Do not over pack and do not bring
large hard-sided roller bags, as the helicopter has very limited
cargo space. There is a strictly enforced 50 pound per person
weight restriction (including rods/reels, lures and any hand-carried
items). Yes, you can get everything within 50 pounds.
We prefer that guests avoid bringing large “bazooka-type”
rod carries; 3 and 4 piece fly rods and 2 piece spinning rods
travel best on the helicopter.
