The news is spreading fast through the CA outdoor community about today’s DFG chopper crash up in the Sierra.
MADERA (AP) — The California Department of Fish and Game says three of its biologists were killed in a helicopter crash in the Sierra National Forest, and the pilot is believed to have died as well.
I just wanted to post this up and offer my own condolences to the family and friends of these dedicated folks. The DFG gets a lot of flack from hunters and non-hunters alike in this state, but the work these people are doing is vital and too often under-appreciated.
Please take a moment to spare a thought for these guys and those they leave behind.
Very sad story. Prayers to all!
