Helicopter piloted by Greg Haufle, with helitack spotter Mark Murray descends to drop us flight gear

Greg and Mark expertly bring in a bag of gear despite acute sun glare

I'm there, just below and to the right of center ready for lift-off

Greg's orange suit is easier to see. We are just about to be lifted.

We are in the air now. You can make out Greg's orange in the center just below sky line. Easier to see if you enlarge.

In the air, just a minute or so from helitack/firefighter Jay Lusher waiting to assist landing on Horseshoe Mesa
