BigM 2 #1 April 19, 2005 Going to be in Seattle for a couple of days in September. Might have a chance to go sneak in a couple of jumps while there on Saturday. Kapowsin or Snohomish? Why?

drdive 0 #3 April 19, 2005 The scenery in Snohomish is awesome - puget sound to the west, cascade range to the east, Mt Baker north, Mt Rainier south. Nice people, that's where I did my tandem that got me hooked on this sport. I hope to get back and do some jumps there this summer. I have heard good things about Kaposin too though.

Thanks in advance> Blue 111- Jeff Also depends on where you'll be staying in the area. Snohomish is a bit closer to Seattle proper and the northern/eastern 'burbs, but if you're down south, Kapowsin might be closer. I've only jumped at Snoho so far so I'm a bit biased towards it, but have also heard very good things about Kapowsin. Either way you're going to get some spectacular views (especially if it's a nice day, which there's still a pretty good chance of in September)."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

skypop 0 #5 April 19, 2005 You can't go wrong either way. I live in Portland, so Kapow is a bit closer for me. Kapow has a nice Otter. Very good people, and great Sat night fires You got to promise not to tell anyone how great the NW weather is in Sept. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigM 2 #6 April 20, 2005 As much as I'd like, both are not possible. One or two jumps is probably all I'd be able to squeeze in. (Going with wuffo friends and Sat. is our only free day). Read where one is 35 and one is 20 from Seattle so distance isn't a factor (I drive 128 to go jump). As long as they are friendly and safe I'll be happy.
