A 'catenary' landing-pad on Alcan's Kemano pipeline, Canada.



The pad is 1/2 mile from the mountains on each side, and 700 feet in the air above an avalanche zone.
It's supported on three inch cables, a mile long, attached to the mountain by 15-21 rock anchors each.

Any Canadian Rotorheads landed there?
