B/c it wasn't for lifeflight or rescue, plus you could also see the line the skiers were taking into the step up they were hitting where it was hovering
 




Injured Mt. Hood climber rescued





Seattle Times staff and news services































The

Clackamas County Sheriff's Office says an Oregon Army National Guard

helicopter took an injured climber from Mount Hood to a Portland

hospital.

The climber, 54-year-old John Creager of Milwaukie, Ore., sustained

leg, arm and facial injuries after falling about 500 feet Sunday.

A sheriff's office spokesman says Creager, initially knocked unconscious, was in "amazingly good spirits" during the rescue.

The fall occurred at about the 10,600-foot mark. There were about 40

climbers ascending the mountain at the time, including a doctor who

treated Creager.

The helicopter transported Creager from Timberline Lodge to OHSU Hospital.

that sounds like a life flight.





 
Sammy was filming up there recently, they took the big WCS jump and re-shaped it a bit, little it shorter but way more floaty. Not sure if they were filming with a heli though.
 
It wasn't for Sammy and it wasn't a rescue either. it was for a big mtn skier and red bull. They somehow figured it woud be ok to come up here without telling anyone. They were doing some filming with hm I guess.
