Been around a while, but I don't think it ever got posted here. Some guy from Florida made this. Great footage from that area we love so much.

Nice! Makes me want to go back soon!

Nice find Zane! June can't come soon enough!

Outstanding video

Wow I love a professional video and having a hele for a camera platform.

Let's put on some skis and go NOW!



OK, maybe not quite enough snow just yet.

Very cool video, thank you for sharing.

A couple of those guys are no longer with us. Fun bunch of great pilots.

That's to bad. I don't know the people in the video. They sure seem to know how to JC the right way. Hele, Beaver, and Husky. Sweet.

The guy in the yellow and white husky was recently featured flying a citation out of cavanaugh bay. The guy talking at the end just before the so long text crashed a husky coming home from fun and sun and tornados, good guy, I have his plane now.

Great video and very nicely done. If these Idaho videos and pictures keep getting posted, I might find myself trying to get one more in this year!!!

Great video! I really miss my time with those guys at the driggs airport. Rich and Spike are great guys and willing to share all they can with anyone about aviation.

Rip Blake. He was one of the greatest flying characters I'll ever know, and offered so much to me while I was learning to fly. Really a legend.

One of my favorite videos on the site. I thought it needed a bump.

Great video, I'd not seen it before. Thanks for bumping it up.

Classic. Thanks for the bump.

I had the privilege of flying with that crew during the 2004 Idaho Backcountry Safari out of Driggs Idaho. The video captures the spirit of the event nicely.

What a great bunch of aviators and fun people to spend a week with.

Two of those guys are indeed no longer with us. They were both outstanding aviators and a pleasure to get to know.

+1 on thanks for the bump.

It's Springtime here in eastern Washington and seeing that video I've got JC fever again!

Nice video. I have met Bill Anders (Apollo Astronaut) a number of times. He is the one with the Air Force markings Beaver. Very nice guy, he knew my dad Warren Meyer. Him and his boys keep a nice flying collection of warbirds at KBVS here in WA, including a P-51. Great guys, and they fly their planes every third Saturday weather permitting. If you ever get up this way, (its great flying country) stop in at KBVS and take a look at Heritage Flight Museum and then hop out to the San Juan Islands for some R&R.

I hope to get over this summer to a couple of the ID strips in my 180hp 172, including Moose Creek.

And Bill, if you read this, thanks for all you guys did for my dad. He thought highly of you! Will see you around.
