Yesterday linemen were helicoptered in cutting power lines.

Dramatic.

Are there areas without power?

That would be. Nothing but respect for those that do it. And under more than the usual stressful circumstances, I am sure.

I was concerned when I saw you filming near the towers. Each side is an "Anchor" tower. When one goes, they can domino to an Angle or Anchor. Just a consideration if you do this again. Great vids.

I've always thought those high volt guys had some brass ones .. add the aerial aspect = *big respect*.

There are some towers nearby out here in the country that a chopper does inspections/maintenance on a couple times a year and I always go out to watch 'em.
