This Weeks Flight on 15th July 2020 finds us in the Copper Canyon, Mexico. Copper Canyon, in northern Mexico, is a series of massive canyons in the Sierra Madre Occidental mountains. Popular for hiking, it gets its name from the copper-green hue of the canyon walls. The famous Chepe (Ferrocarril Barrancas del Cobre) train connects the region via over 80 tunnels and nearly 40 bridges.
We will basically follow the rail line from Creel to Temoris (NB: The rail line is very windy and therefore the flight route is only indicative). We then leave the rail line and fly across many canyons finally returning to Creel via northern part of the Rio San Ignacio canyon.
