Re the main blade slapping the back blade. that won't happen. what can happen with negative G is the main blade will either cut the tail off or mast bump and shed blades or cut through the cab removing various important essential bits of your body. It's not pretty believe me. Your pilot obviously dumped the collective and loaded the disc so you all made it. Good work. Hey keep it up, the time you put in to this during epic missions is very impressive.

Someone needs to say this so here it goes. What's up with Matt's hair, at night, in a sleeping bag? Does gel keep that poking straight up like that? Isn't that a shit-ton of work to keep it looking like that? Can't he wear hats? He's got nose hairs sticking out his nostrils but he insists on perfectly coiffed hair in his sleeping bag in his sleep? I'd hate being around Matt. Helicopter or nah. Just saying.

Now you need to make it to Alpine Lake. Hike/Run in Camp. No one is ever there. So skinny dip to cool off, or bath. Then get warm the big rock. Made those hikes many times. Camped, fished and just unplugged from it all for a few days. Didn't you go down and around beautiful Redfish Lake? We call it our perfect meditation place. So worth it.

seriously, how the heck do you afford a helicopter and all this gear and time off? I can barely afford to keep myself in good trail shoes, and I definitely can't afford the time off work to do more than a few short runs on a regular weekend. How am I failing so bad at life?

Great video. I'm thoroughly enjoying your trips. Took a trip with my sons about 15 years ago to the Sawtooths. Ours was a 60 mile 4 day loop through fantastic scenery. Your run brought back great memories. Thanks!

This just came up on my suggestions, definitely adding it to the list! Maybe as an overnight. I have T-11 compression, so I can run. But backpacking it should be awesome staying by the lake!
You guys rock!

If Ultimate Direction isn't paying you, they should. Also, after watching a bunch of your videos, I just bought one of their packs after using nothing but my Osprey vest for several years.

Finally did this one after watching you guys do this one. My 6 year old and 8 year old did it with me and we added in Observation Peak. Thanks for posting this and giving me the idea.

That is pretty sweet drone footage of the helicopter flying across the GSL. I assume that you launch and retrieve the drone from the helicopter in the air. Is that correct?

How did you get the helicopter footage at the end? Drone or another helicopter? Again, I say your view count is way too low for the quality of video you produce.

As a fellow helo pilot, how do the landing permits flesh out in the sawtooths? PM as required. I'd like to get out there.

I would never trust a helicopter. That's what I would do is fly low in case you have to crash land. Knock on wood.
