A small, simple landing spot for helicopters with minimal facilities, often in remote or emergency locations.
Blend of 'helicopter' + 'stop' (a stopping point). Coined to describe emergency or temporary helicopter landing areas that don't have full airport amenities.
Helistops are the difference between life and death in mountain rescues—a cleared field or rooftop is enough for a rescue helicopter to land and evacuate injured hikers.
