Your initial cruise altitude is 1000’, which you can maintain until Fix15. At that point climb to 1500’ to avoid terrain. At Fix19 climb again to 2000’ and at Fix 22 you’ll need to climb one last time on this leg to 3200’msl. Land into the wind and taxi to the docks shown below to unload.

turn into the wind. Taxi to the dock as
