Louisiana Drop Zones?

[exitsfunnel 0]

Hello,

According to uspa.org there are no Group Member Drop Zones in Louisiana. I'll be passing through in a couple of weeks and would like to stop somewhere for a jump. Does anyone know if there are any non member DZs in Liuisiana? Thanks in advance!

if your are coming from the east, stop by Gold Coast Skydivers in Moss Point, MS. It is a first class DZ and is only about a mile north of I-10. Only about 100 miles if that from new orleans

Damn, I've been away from the dz for so long, didn't even know about this move. From that other thread sounds like it's XKeys South. Good luck to all y'all down there.
