Thread: Heli Trip Gear

Every year it's almost a joke watching the parties turn up at the various load out spots with ridiculous amounts of beer and all sorts of crap and then gettig told by the pilot to throw it all back in their vehicles. I think it was last year at the Whataroa carpark we watched a party of four (they were flying in two trips in a md500) and they had such a ridiculous amount of crap it was funny, they must have literally had about two or three boxes of "wild moose" each for every day they were going to he in there, a jumbo pack of 18 toilet rolls, and all sorts of stuff. It was funny looking at their meagre piles once the pilot had fucked around weighing all their shit and putting more than three quarters of it back in their vehicles. I think they expected a bloody Chinook was coming to fly them in or something and they were going to sit around at their small town sized camp and get pissed on Wild Moose pre mixers and shit themselves all day everyday they were in their block.
