The Custom Helicopters Bell 206B, C-GSHJ, was transporting two passengers from Island Lake to a fishing camp situtated 50 miles east of Island Lake on East Lake, Ontario. Upon touching down on a log-constructed landing pad, the pilot applied collective to reposition the helicopter on the pad. The right bear paw on the high-skid landing gear caught a root or stump near the pad, and the helicopter rolled over onto its right side. The pilot and passengers were wearing shoulder restraints which minimized their injuries; one passenger received a minor cut to the head. The pilot used an onboard satelite phone to call for assistance.
