Saving Dummies at Cape Disappointment

This past week on the way back from Portland, we made an impromptu visit to Astoria and Cape Disappointment. The weather was nearly perfect. It was not disappointing. While there, we stumbled across the Coast Guard conducting a series of training exercises. Multiple helicopters were practicing short haul recoveries of dummies on the side of a cliff … and no it was not us. An amazing group of professionals providing an invaluable service. A few images are below. For additional images, click on the following link to visit the gallery at https://turnrightat50.com/photography/nggallery/puget-sound/cape-disappointment
