I love doing this, easily the best way to get gear down on the coast and it makes you feel awesome helping out survivors who are trying to loot the town for food without getting shot. Found myself a Coyote backpack full of morphine and meat along with the usual survival gear and a m107 and Bizon on one sniper there. The downside is when other people are doing this too, i was taken out by a group of 5 guys fully armed with a chopper circling above sweeping the trees for snipers the other day.
