peckerhead 0 #1 June 6, 2008 Just curious what is going on these days, I have not jumped there in a long time and I might be there this summer. Most of the threads seem to be old so please don't be a "do a search nazi" (I hate the "do a search nazis") Not down south (Moab) but in the SLC area. Thanks!

bclark 0 #2 June 6, 2008 2 DZ's. Both Nice. Skydive Utah has a King Air and a Cessna is just west of SLC on the South shore of the Great Salt Lake. They are a very family oriented DZ, DZO is Jack Guthrie. This is my home DZ. They are on a municipal airport with a great view of the mountains and lake. Ogden skydiving center is about 45 minutes north of SLC. Last I knew they were flying a Caravan. I think they have a couple of piston Cessnas also. DZO is Brian Wallace. They are located on a municipal airport with an operating control tower. They have a wind tunnel nearby. I would say check them both out. You will find nice people at both places.

peckerhead 0 #3 June 6, 2008 Thanks, I jumped with Jack back in the 80's so I will definetley look him up. Are there two DZ's at Hinkley now? Does anyone still jump at Heber City? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bclark 0 #4 June 6, 2008 There is a listing for Airventure skydiving. I don't know if this company is still in business. It was started by a guy named Pat and his wife Sandy. At one time they had a Turbo 207 and a tandem rig, but last I had heard they were no longer around. But they still have a really out of date website up. airventure1.com There has been no jumping in Heber for years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamiem 1 #5 June 6, 2008 I jumped at skydive Utah last summer in Toole and had an awesome time. It was my 16th jump so I was a little nervous, and they helped me out, talked to me about landing pattern and it was an awesome jump. Plus the view was amazing. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
