Pirep - transfer flight from Shageluk to Kaltag

Well after a nice sleep in one of the cabins I headed back to the diner for a good breakfast. I preflighted the Bell 412 and after some time I was able to take off,
but someone shouted at me as was intending to climb into the Bell, so I turned around and a guy came to me and asked, whether I could take on a passenger to Kaltag, and I replied: Yes, why not, we could always need some extra payment.
It was a female reporter, Helga Frederickson, from Norway and she wants a story of rookie female Musher Sigrid Ekran and has an appointment with her in a few days and in the mean time she wants to explore the trail a little bit.
We climbed out to 4500 feet and headed to Kaltag and it was a really good flight.
Arrival at Kaltag was after a 60 minutes flight. Though it looks like that there are some female reporters on their ways along the trail.
