Rookie Training

Well, I made it out to Oregon. I've just finished week one of the four week rookie training program with the Malheur Rappel Crew. The photo is from our first packout. We'll spend this week camping in the woods and brushing up on chainsaw skills, line digging and of course more running. the 3rd week will be S-271 (helicopter crewmember training) and the 4th will be the rappel academy where I will learn how to actually rappel.
