They brought a Blackhawk in when we where there to fly the broken otter back in from the tundra.
I would think if you asked nicely they could bring one if for you guys and you could fast rope out at the top of the mnt..... :rockin:

This made me laugh! So Michael was getting everything buttoned up on his end this evening. Taking enough salt to do 2 sheep and a bear. One issue though.........he forgot to write "NOT COCAINE" on the bags  :chuckle: I'm sure TSA won't mind 😬

Hope this hunt is all that you've dreamed and prepared for.

Your pack list includes "cross." IDK if that was: a) "crocs" misspelled, b) you plan to pray a lot, or c) you plan to crucify something. If b or c, please post pics.

And we will need an update on whether you can still out-wrestle/fight/run/pack Michael.

My guess would be d. Memorial for their brother

Almost go time, looking forward to the write up. Safe travels
