The judge ordered us to pay a combined $1,176 for the Flight for Life Helicopter($1,000) & S&R fees($176) between the three of us. The fine was $200 each. It really wasn't worth trying to dispute the restitution fees.

Would you still have been fined if you accessed the backcountry through the gate?
A lot of people earn their turns. Some just get bigger checks.

so wait, you called SAR, told them you were safe, told them not to do anything....and they still came out looking for you guys? Besides a fine for ducking the rope i'd be pretty pissed about paying for this shit when you told them it wasn't needed.....

Cmsummit I'm glad they didn't hit you guys too terribly hard.
I think it was lame that Copper got involved by suspending people.
I think I worked with you or your bro at GTL two years ago.
There's no need to rehash this old argument when you can find all the answers and details you are missing in the original thread. Originally Posted by Z

Sounds fair to me. Stupid situation but it could have been worse.
