Looking for a bushpilot to fly 2-3 people from the end of the Gunflint or Grand Marais to Ely second weekend in October. One-way trip. Likely October 10th.

I know Piragis Outfitters in Ely can arrange flights. There are probably other flight services in the area, also.

A guy I follow on instagram is a float plane pilot for USFS and others out of Ely. Maybe he has his own plane too?

I saw Bushpilot Jim at the seaplane base. I guess he doesn’t visit this site anymore. He will be flying And working the backcountry of the Frank Church on the dates you asked about. He said to Try Brian at Adventure Seaplanes out of Tower.

Don't limit yourself to seaplane service. Both Grand Marias and Ely have land based airports with paved runways.
