When I was showing those pictures around, somebody did mention that the flat top was in James Bond movie, I found it hard to beleive due to its location way up north.

For 2clipper, yes you could land on top legally and it is flat with hard packed snow on it, here in Canada only in "parks" do you need prior permission to land somewhere. or outside of "parks" regulations are "2000 ft away from the closest habitation".

Also hard to deviate from your original route when there a lot of distance in between fuel stops, Can't afford to get caught in bad weather in that kind of terrain looking for a way out when you have barely enough top make it to your next fuel.

Different year, aircraft but same location
