Lovely scenery Alex.  Singing?  Is that caused by the wind blowing over the sharp escarpment on the ridge?

Lovely spot to fly.

Beautiful views Alex.    Bet that would be a bit of a treacherous drive up or down from that house in the wintertime.  However, the views alone would be a great reason to live there.

Actually my first ride there was in snow, but it was late autumn first snow. I can not believe it's possible to reach there in winter by car ;)

I bet even with 4WD and chains on the tires it would be impossible.  Guess whoever lives there must have to plan for all contingencies in the winter time, especially since I didn't see a helipad nearby.

It's a hut for passing tourists, track is part of the longest pedestrian trail over mountain spain - Kom-Emine ~600 km. they sure did know how to survive and they are lucky to have a road at all many huts have non and are reachable only by foot. And for the helipad - we are fighting to have at least One emergency helicopter as there Non so do not count on them - but on the other hand this made droning safer

Interesting information you have provided Alex.  

There is a Coast Guard Helicopter base just 5 miles from where I live on my boat.  I must be in the direct flight path from their base out to ocean flights and rescues as they fly over me on a regular basis.  The ADS-B works perfectly on my Air 2S as it is always alerting me of an approaching craft.

Lovely footage.
Why are they called like that?
