Heli-Biking
Today I got to go for a pretty cool ride. I flew with Phillip over the mountain to Glenfalloch Station where he picks up the Heli-skiers. And we put the mountain bike in the backseat and I rode it back. He did a really good job before we took off and during the flight of explaining to me how the helicopter works. It really isn't all that hard to fly one. We landed on a mountain top just above the station for a couple of minutes and he pointed out the general boundaries of the Station, and all the names of the surrounding mountains. And my ride back was just as great. 25 kilometers=15miles. And it had equal parts up and down. Took around 3.5 hours with a half hour lunch stop. And the weather was great. Full sun, a bit of a breeze, high 50's maybe even 60 degrees. If this is winter I'll take it!! It really has been nice all week. Low to Mid 50's all last week. Not sure what the upcoming week is going to bring as far as the weather and work.
