The MD Helicopter Inc. 369D, serial number 290459D, registration C-GHFA, was operating from the operator's Horizon Camp near Adams Lake, 56 nautical miles northeast of Kamloops, British Columbia, in heli-logging support functions. The pilot reported that at higher torque settings there was some resistence in the collective; the resistence subsequently went away. The main rotor blade track appeared to be out of alignment and the aircraft had a strong vibration. The pilot completed the crew and material moves then landed. Company maintenance personnel inspected the helicopter and found a crack in the lower skin of one of the five main rotor blades.
