Power Easement Water Drop - Helicopters were the only option in the terrain, as major heavy plant wasn't viable. This belly tanker worked in conjunction with 3 bucket aircraft operators and the air attack supervisor to stop further fire extension in difficult areas and under very average weather conditions.

The morning after my birthday, sitting in my living room, I heard the faint double chop of what could only be a Chinook. I walked out to the front porch and watched as a single Chinook would come in over the mountain, dip down below the trees, then reappear moments later. Every 10 minutes, the same thing. After an hour I decided I needed to go find where she was scooping up the water from. I checked Google maps and could 2 small lakes in that area. Being only about a 5 minute drive, I grabbed my Sony and 600mm lens and went hunting. The first location was the one, a small crowed had formed around the neighborhood pond this CH-47 crew had decided was the best water source. I think this was one of the most amazing experiences of my life; having a Chinook just yards away, repeatedly approaching, hovering, and departing for over an hour is indescribable. That sound and downwash are unmatched. The fire was just a few miles up the mountain, in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina.
