If I had a helicopter, that's probably exactly what I would do with it!

It really is the only way to collect. Just remember your pilot will moan that you're carrying too many rocks on the way back and he might not be able to keep the helicopter in the air.

It used to be the Pegasus Claim, very apropos that you have to fly there.

Best Wishes, Van King

Definitely my favorite method of transport in this area; we're building a similar heliport on Spruce. Hemlock and Pegasus claims are not synonymous, Pegasus, aka Condor, is close enough to the road that no heli is needed.

If you don't mind me asking, do you fly it yourself or do you hire a pilot for the day?

The pilot comes with the helicopter, Jenna. Once considered taking heli pilot training, but was concerned I'd get interested in an outcrop and fly into it. Here's a picturesque locality we flew to last summer.
