I'm seriously considering it as well. I've been DYING to go to alaska, and it doesn't help that my boyfriend is always talking bout what an amazing place it is. Time for me to jump in ALASKA!!!!
It was talked about here between a friend and I. I'm up for it depending on my job situation. How awesome would it be to jump at midnight with the glow of the sun still there.
I'm 95% sure I can make it. I just reserved a flight using frequent flyer miles, since those go quickly. Assuming I can make it work around work, I'm in.
Hmm.... I wonder if Kapowsin will let me hop a ride on the Otter?

I go up there every year to visit my mom. But luckly I am able to get buddy passes on Delta hehehe. Only think I am worried about is not having enough leave to do Alaska and WFFC...
Fly commercial!! I rode up in the Otter one year.....long flight, cramped with gear & no bathroom on board.....booked a commercial flight for the following year.

Yeah, I thought about that... not to worry, I've got a commercial flight booked. I figure that's 3 1/2 hours... the ride on the Otter's got to be longer. Not fun...
Nope. you can book it when you get here. Just remember, if its a really nice day, try to go out then. Book as soon as you get here so you can be on one of the first loads. Last year, we had 2 days of PERFECT weather. THen the last 2 days was a downpour. I sneaked into a slot for the Glacier when another jumper decided to do it later in the Boogie. He never got his chance because of the rain. How long are you gonna be up for? Just the boogie? Or make a little extended vacation out of it?

I wish. Plan right now is fly up Thursday night, home Sunday night. If for whatever reason I'm not on a project at that time (doubtful, though) I may be able to extend, but no plans to at this point.
I'm doing a vacation! I'm gonna be there for 1 1/2 weeks. still unsure of what i'm doing when i'm out there. I'm just psyched to be in alaska for that timeframe :-)
Hey Curt! Woohoo! Didn't know ya'll are going too. That's awesome news. We're missing Lost Prairie this year, can't really do both boogies. How about you?
You all suck! I've missed the Summer Solstice Boogie two years in a row and I'm not gonna make that three years in a row so I'll see you there next year. Say "Hi" to Bubbles for me
