Just saw it over salmon Creek area.
What area?
Lower thomas
Don’t worry, they’re just “practicing” … af
That is not low and slow. Maybe for a first year grower. Time to put your big boy pants on. Unless you can see the guys sunglasses and count how many fingers he is holding up then they are low and slow. That is some routine check out the zone flyover. So many green rushers can’t wait to put a 100 footer out but piss their pants the second they hear the sky reaper ready to come grab what’s theirs.
The reader said the first pass through was much lower and slower but didn’t have their camera in hand.
Ah-oh,RUN FOREST RUN!!
were all noisy and circling here this morn
but they were supposed to ONLY inspecting PG&E poles and wires
no telling what law enforcement might have went for a ride with a camera in hand
They are looking for grows that are stealing water or deverstions. ,so you might think twice about stealing out of a river or creek. This year .
welcome to the jungle
Just above lower Thomas Rd. in Salmon Creek this afternoon.. Quite low and headed south, more or less..
Thank you.
Just passed weott headed south searching the river.
Flying low with the door open and banking from left to right to view. Looks like they are after water diversions. There are no power lines over there. I did see a 2 in line in the river over the winter between weott and Meyers while kayaking. Maybe it’s related. Helicopter had a double tail stabilizer and was black
Right now at 12:14 p.m. on Wednesday?
