I’ll send you a spare roll of foil. There’s more in that coastal Oregon neighborhood than a first glance might spot. The coastal range is way more private timber than National forest: think Weyerhauser, LP, etc. There is an outfit near Tillamook that builds/tests super high flying balloons that get spotted by ground folks regularly. And Tillamook is where the largest balloon hanger in the country still is. And McMinville is home to Evergreen Aviation-—the home of the CIA’s old Air America. And don’t forget that whole coast range was a target of Jap Balloon bombs back in the WW II day. And we haven’t yet found all of those. Lotta things to watch out for in that range.

And I know that at one point they were considering using balloons to lift and transport cut timber! Where did DB Cooper land?

I am out here in the flatlands. I believe you.

“...that whole coast range was a target of Jap Balloon bombs back in the WW II ...”


Also a Jap sub fired on Battery Russell during WWII:
