My point is that these types of rescues have become common place and EXPECTED by those that enjoy these outdoor activities.

However there should be some type of funding source beside mine and your backpockets when it is needed.

The funding for those helicopters is minimal in the scope of tax funds. This is not one of those things I worry about when it comes to tax fund misuse. Funding removal of tattoos in CA, I have a problem with. Funding of which ketchup flows out of the bottle the fastest, yeap, have a problem. But I never have a problem with rescuing a human life, no matter how stupid that person may be and what they did to cause their predicament.
