Rescue?

Was this a rescue in progress?

Re: Rescue?

Hmmm, I wouldn't say rescue. This is a photo of the Squirrel chopper used to remove feces and garbage from base camp.

Re: Rescue?

Would that classify as lending assistence to a Toilet then, lol??? So that's literally a flying bag of kr@p... interesting. No wonder the rope is so long.

Re: Rescue?

I would only recommend lending assistance to any toilet if you're fully qualified. The cable is actually called a longline. It's used so that the helicopter does not have to land.
