Busy above Grand Canyon: a look at Grand Canyon Helitack
As one of the busiest helitack bases in the country - Grand Canyon Helitack spends most days saving lives, fighting fires and slinging utility loads at Grand Canyon National Park
GRAND CANYON, Ariz. - Whether it's flying a maintenance crew to repair a break on the Trans-Canyon Pipeline, fighting wildfires across the southwest or launching a full scale search and rescue for missing hikers, river runners or over the edge incidents, the Grand Canyon's Helitack (GCH)crew is never at a loss for something to do.
