Wow, That sounds great !! When I was a pilot in Alaska whenever I was hauling hunters out to the bush the company procedure was to carry TP along and toss some out to mark game trails and other landmarks. The TP would act as a visual beacon from the ground so on the following day the hunters could orient themselves. These days I guess they would simply take a few GPS points as they flew along.

I was always very low whenever we did that. I bet that a full roll of TP from 6000' is something to see.
