Amazon 7 #1 March 25, 2006 Well its almost spring here in the Pacific NorthWET. I got a letter a couple days ago from Lena and it made me start thinking about summer days with sucky weather, warm beer and too damn many Canadians. I cant wait to try the rope swing at the lake, and to make a water jump on my Para-Commander MK-II. I did not see a thread yet SOOOOOOO here it is. http://www.skydivelostprairie.com/pages/events.htm GET READY JULY 29th THRU AUGUST 7th BOOGIE 2006 39TH ANNUAL -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The event starts on July 29th with the arrival of the first turbine.

NWFlyer 2 #4 March 25, 2006 I will definitely NOT be having any fun at Lost Prairie this year. But let's start a list of those of us who won't be having any fun...

homer 0 #5 March 25, 2006 I would so love to be there again and jumping with you. That all infinity way we did that funneled and funneled again was SO MUCH FUN. However, I think I will be attending the WFFC instead. I need the CRW practice if I plan on getting a slot for the 100-way in '07.

Amazon 7 #6 March 25, 2006 Lena wants to get an Infinity way together again this year.... SOOOOOO that could be another fun jump...Mebbe she will actually get to be on it, now that the munchkin has made the big appearance into the world. By the way.. WFFC is the week before...this year they swapped dates but I still bet ... that our sucky weather at LP will still be better than the sucky weather in Illinois Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homer 0 #7 March 25, 2006 Your probably right. I don't think the weather could have been any worse 80+ blue sky days and 30- star filled nights. Yah, it sucked at least a good friend keeping my worn at night. CSA #699 Muff #3804 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billo 0 #13 March 26, 2006 holy crap...mapquest puts the trip for me at 22h21m to Kalispell, then 50 more minutes from there. if i'm going to make it, i'll definitely need to find someone to carpool with. or what's the closest commercial airport to there? flying in worked good for me in georgia, i just might need to do that again!

NWFlyer 2 #14 March 26, 2006 LP is actually in (near) Marion, MT, which is about 45 minutes from Kalispell. There is an airport in Kalispell that has commercial flights - you'll probably connect through Seattle or Salt Lake City. Spokane's another option - the drive from there would be about 4-5 hours, IIRC. There' should be enough folks flying in that you can coordinate on airport pickups and/or rental cars.

Amazon 7 #15 March 26, 2006 I think the flights into Spokane are going to be cheaper than flying into Kalispell I looked at a flight from ORD( Ohare, Chicago) to GEG ( Spokane WA) on Expedia. Leave ORD 28 July 2006 Return 6 AUG 2006 Currently United is 434 nonstop You could carpool with someone from Spokane.. or going thru Spokane on the way....or rent a car. Or you could fly into Seattle and carpool over with some of us from this area CurrentlyAmerican has the flight to Seattle... $301 same dates Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
