A parachute rigger from the 725th Brigade Support Battalion (Airborne), 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, gathers his parachute during a precision spot jump as part of the first event for the Best Rigger Competition at the Malamute Drop Zone on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska Oct. 22, 2014. The riggers packed their own MC-6 parachutes and were timed to get into a certain spot on the drop zone for the competition. The top performers from the event will go on to represent U.S. Army Alaska in the upcoming Rigger Rodeo event at Fort Bragg in 2015. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Jeffrey Smith/Released)
