    About $1000 / hr for a local JetRanger at 120 mph on the way in and 80 mph with the load on the line on the way out makes for a pretty quick recovery.

    My bro-inlaw found one in Alberta yrs ago while we were elk hunting. took pics of vin and stuff .It too was rolled but not badly.filed report and just before the time was up the owner popped up.Sounds like they went in heavy winter w deep snow and river crossing to recover it. Some guys sure jump to conclusions though.See a truck or quad standing for a day or 2 and right away all these senarios are poppin into their head.

    Re: Found this abandoned

    Found myself a motor home way the heck back in the bush while hunting in squamish. broken door, broken ignition, blanket over steering wheel, missing plates, missing electronics, bullet holes all over the place, driven right into thick bush but hadnt been there long.

    Took photos, recorded VIN, took GPS points and flagged trail out with tape. Called RCMP, they said go to the 7-11 and wait for an officer, waited for 20 min. finally showed up, took description and vin, didnt want photos, gps, or a guided trip back in or anything else. Once the realized it was stolen idiots called me 3 more times trying to find it. Finally I told them off, look i tried to give all sorts of information and no one wanted it, so stop bugging me.

    3 weeks later while heading back up there I saw it pass me behind a tow truck on the way down the sea to sky.
