Using helicopters, Flagstaff is thinning the Coconino National Forest on Mount Elden to limit the risk of wildfire and ensure that Flagstaff’s water supply is safe to drink. “Per hour, it’s thousands of dollars. So we have to keep things moving,” says Dave Webb of R&R Conner Helicopters. “The helicopter goes back and forth probably 250 times a day like this … and it varies from one to 10 trees at a time.” (Photo by Delia Johnson/Cronkite News)
