Awesome link, thanks for sharing. I hear fireguard 1 from time to time... do you happen to know exactly where the helibase is located?

03/21/2009 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! - near here somewhere

https://www.safecom.gov/searchone.asp?ID=14550 - freq might be 168.6125

http://gacc.nifc.gov/sacc/logistics/aircraft/Region8_AM&SPlan.pdf - might be info here - nope I dont see anything relevant here

https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportu...&id=8b5269bc7c2237ec2455585a81190eff&_cview=0 - helibase is in Lake County somewhere - Solicitation 1 shows the helibase on FR535 west of 19

http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5192654.pdf - Forest map - doesnt show 535 - ??? - I do see 3 USFS locations to the west of 19 - 1 is in Lake County area

http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5353375.pdf - nice roads map here but I dont see Smokey Helibase nor FR535

I still need to confirm that "Smokey Helibase" = the base they built in 2007

Nothing like a good wild goose chase!

29 06.3 N 81 37.8 W - put that into Google Maps - 535 W of 19 - 51911 Railroad Grade Rd - sat view might show the helibase - lats / longs came from http://gacc.nifc.gov/sacc/administrative/forms_references/SA_Mob_Guide/Chapter80.pdf - they sure dont make it easy to find this stuff
