I placed this cache while waiting for my crew to come back with a patient. Occasionally you might see helicopters land on the nearby helipad. Mostly it will be the North Memorial Helicopter ( Aircare 2 ) out of Brainerd, but sometimes the Princeton ( Aircare 4 ) and Bemidji ( Aircare 5 ) ships will be in depending on availability. Other helicopters from Life Link III or Sanford might make their way in from other companies as well. This allows for very fast transport to St. Cloud (approx 23 min) or any hospital in the cities ( approx 38 min to North Memorial or 40 min to Abbott NW ). North Memorial uses Agusta 109 helicopters. Life Link III uses Agusta 119 Koala helicopters, and Sanford uses the Airbus EC-145 ( formally Eurocopter )
If you’re looking for a truly unique geocaching experience, try out Flying High. I guarantee that it will be one of the most unique caches you’ll likely encounter during your geocaching adventures !! Give it a shot, it’s well worth the trip a few miles North of Bemidji.
