Guide dropped my helmet off a cliff- who is responsible?
At a commercial shuttle op with a heli drop, my helmet and goggles were dropped by the guide while unloading the heli and my brand new poc full face and Oakley prism goggles rolled off a cliff. It is my initial opinion that it should be the operator’s responsibility to replace my gear as it was in the care of their employee at the time. I wouldn’t expect the guide himself to be held responsible as it happened in the course of his employment and he wasn’t being negligent. However, it could also be seen as my own bad luck.
I’ve contacted the op but they have been slow to respond. I am not sure how hard to push this though and am looking for views from the community. Thanks

Do you really need a full face anyway? Channeling your inner Seth?
