Turned out nice again
Even though it’s officially The Best Job In The World Ever, there’s still the occasional time you can find me grumbling about the weight of my camera bag, the bad light, the location etc. Hey, I’m British, grumbling is what we do.
This weekend was not one of those times. I headed up to Lillooet, BC to guinea-pig a never-before-attempted heli-drop on one of the local peaks, and was treated to a stunning 2100m descent from the very summit to the river valley below. Days don’t get much better than this.
Taxi for six, dead on time

“Can you see your house from here?”
“Nope”
“Me neither”

Huge thanks to Chris and Kevin for showing us around, Scott from CC Helicopters for the ride up and as always Brian for excellent photo-slutting.
Just remember after 4 years you can become a Canadian citizen, so be careful, i think you have a year and a bit left.
and i had the lucky chance to go helicopter fishing a few times, it is defiantly a cool noise.
Has Laura become your assistant?
