Hi Jobe,
For the helicopter rescue do you think the hikers were coming from bowen? I wonder how the new campground owners feel about being the point of rescue for future incidents. I recall seeing rescues where there were several ambulances and fire trucks parked at bowen even for one person and Mike always seemed to complain most about having to deal with the rescues. It seems like with the greater convenience of this new campground will come more inexperienced hikers and lead to more rescues.
