Anywhere to jump in alaska?

[toadly 0]

Does anyone know of a place to make a jump in Alaska. I jumped SD Alaska in the past, but undersatnd it is now closed. Is there any avenue to possibily make a jump; maybe an FBO, charter, or for hire operation? Should i just leave my rig at home?

There is a group from the former dz that has started an operation in Wasilla very near the old Alaska Skydiving dz. I'm not sure how to get in touch with them though.

No we don't have a DZ yet up here! We're close, have a plane, and a landing area from what I understand, and it will be near the old operation. I'll be contacting my rigger this week, and get an update on the status of the possible DZ.

HOWEVER... there are TONS of pilots up here that don't seem to mind to take people up to let them jump out into fields and stuff. I don't know if you're just looking to make 1 jump or looking for a dropzone to make numerous jumps at. I'll keep you posted on what I hear back from my rigger (he seems to know what's going on). And of course there's always a chance that someone else up here may have some knowledge of something that I do not know yet.

As noted in the other thread on this topic, here is some contact info I got from Bill Jones, former Skydive Alaska DZO.

The DZ opened this weekend. Call 907-360-8338 or 230-5334 for all the details. -Bill Jones
