TallGuy 0 #1 August 17, 2005 I know the subject line is a little redundant. But just a little. If you haven't heard of the boogie click here for the details. So this year the weekend after the Byron Boogie I'm planning to go to Moab to see if it's all THEY say it is. Brian Burke (Have you been Burked YET?) gives it his seal of approval. Skydive New England is a strong supporter of Skydive Moab and since I am a supporter of Skydive New England (great folks and a great dropzone), how could I possibly not go. So who's going this year? I'll start the list off with some friends from Northern California on dz.com I am expecting to see there. Coming: ccq TallGuy Maybe: pinkie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davedlg 0 #2 August 17, 2005 I'll be there. It was too much fun last year not to come back this year!! Moab is a spectacular setting for skydiving. I found it to be distracting in freefall! You can see Arches N.P. right across the highway, Canyonlands is not far off, The Colorado river and innumberable side canyons disappear off into every direction... I can't wait.

TallGuy 0 #3 August 17, 2005 Sounds wonderful. Now I'll add your name to the list since you couldn't be bothered.... Coming: ccq davedlg TallGuy Maybe: pinkie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #4 August 17, 2005 I'm planning on being there and this will be my last boogie south of the border before I need to make my way back up to Canada. But I'm not sure how many skydives I will make as I'm sure I will be hucking myself off of some cliffs while I'm there as well.

NWFlyer 2 #6 August 17, 2005 Coming: CanuckInUSA ccq davedlg TallGuy Maybe: NWFlyer pinkie That's an extreeeeeeemely tentative maybe. I would *love* to come as I had a great time jumping at Moab in May and know it would be tons of fun... I'm just going to have to figure out the finances/time thing at that point. If I'm not working yet, I'm gonna be too broke. If I am working, I may not have the vacation time. Anyone wanna sponsor me?

Frenchy68 0 #16 August 22, 2005 Quotestop over and pick me up would you? That's a thought! Then again, it doesn't enhance our chances to actually making it to the boogie.

TallGuy 0 #17 August 22, 2005 So... I'm about to register and the web site wants to know where I'm sleeping (I think it likes me) . But I don't know yet. Now I like free (what's my favorite nation?) and I like to be just outside of where the evening partying is. So it seems like camping at the Moab Airport would be the logical solution. But I haven't been there before so perhaps there is a better option? Does anyone that's been there before have a suggestion? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frenchy68 0 #19 August 22, 2005 Airport by the Bonfire is the nearest spot. Not the quietest though...

groundpounder 0 #25 August 25, 2005 So, now that we have compiled a list of participants, let's arrange for rides, shall we? I, myself am a friendly traveler who listens to any music and doesn't need to go to the bathroom too often. What more do you need on a roadtrip? No seriously, I live in the east bay and am looking to carpool out there. Spare the air, man! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
