A helicopter ride through Gallatin Canyon

Women in Flight...for our exciting rider over the Gallatin Valley we all received a commemerative certificate celebrating women flying for 80 yrs. It was such a beautiful clear day so I had a great opportunity to take some ariel views of the valley. We started by Belgrade, continued south towards the canyon and then veered west towards Three Forks/Manhattan until returning back to Belgrade. Heli flying is very exciting and allows the passenger much better views than one would receive in a standard airplane as it can get much lower and closer to the ground. This also allows for more stomach turning excitement and a little more adventure. I was accompanied on our flight by my friend Yvonne (Left) and our Pilot friend Vicki(Middle) .

These are great shots. That is so cool you were able to ride along with them. I was given a ride in a helicopter in Alaska and it was so fun and a beautiful view too. Looks like you had fun.
