An All-American CH-47 Chinook helicopter sits at a landing zone approximately 14,000 feet above sea level in the mountains just west of Fort Carson, Colo., April 12. As the 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade prepares to deploy to Afghanistan late this summer, the brigade began its high altitude mountain environmental training in early April at Butts Army Airfield in Fort Carson, Colo., and will continue the training until mid June. Of all the brigade's helicopters, the Chinooks are capable of flying at the highest altitudes. Most of the landing zones pilots are using to practice in this area are at the same altitude or above the highest landing zones they will be using during the deployment.
