BlindBrick 0 #53 December 1, 2003 I live in Durango and SD:The Rockies is just over 250 miles away through a couple of mountain passes which means that this time of year the drive is almost as interesting as the skydive. -Blind"If you end up in an alligator's jaws, naked, you probably did something to deserve it."

DrewEckhardt 0 #59 December 2, 2003 Usually 12 miles. I've manifested from home and made 20 minute calls without driving much over the speed limit. My other favorite local DZ is 100 miles away, and my best time getting there is about 1:15 in spite of doing an indicated 100-105 MPH once on the interstate.

xdoctor 0 #69 December 2, 2003 I think I've got you all beat. I'm in Wyoming, and have to drive to Colorado to get in a jump.

Amazon 7 #75 December 4, 2003 Quote8 miles away from DZ. Yup me too..just 8 miles away from the Skydive Snohomish. Kapowsin on the other hand is about 83 miles and 1 hour 45 minutes. Blue Skies south of Bremerton is even more interesting. 30 minute drive to the ferry terminal at Edmonds.. 35 minute boat ride then another 30 minute drive south.
