Mt Gardner Heli take off
We had hiked up Mt Gardner on Bowen Island and were enjoying the view. Mt Gardner has a radio station at the top of the mountain and there were two guys doing some work up there. They came over to us to ask if we would move as there was a helicopter coming in to pick them up. They boarded the helicopter and this is the video of them leaving!
