    Default Idaho Backcountry - Stick and Rudder

    Here is a movie that Natalie made of our trip to Stick and Rudder. I'll do a trip report soon but this will give you guys an idea of what it's like to head there for training including ranch stays.

    That’s a wonderful video, Josh! Really nicely done... It made my morning.

    I wish I could’ve spent more time with Paul when I was up there!

    Very nice Josh. I was there just before you and due to snow, I was unable to visit those locations. I have plans to go back with my plane and have Paul take me out there. Thanks for posting.

    What a cool time Josh! Thanks for the video. I came back and browsed the job listings at Idaho National Lab. You can't beat that flying.
