This is a 17-minute bird’s-eye view of kayaking the (approximately) 1-mile around Flathead Lake’s Cedar Island.

We like to kayak in shallow, calm water where we can see the rock formations below us — particularly in Montana’s crystal, clear Flathead Lake. It is amazing what fascinating colors and rock formations our “follow me” drone revealed.
