Yep it's still going, not the wild nights of yore but still your best bet if you're in Nor Cal Sept. 23-25th. We'll have our King Air, a Lodi Otter, and a helicopter. Flying fish in the hanger, food, RW, Freefly, Wingsuiting, and all the usual Skydiver stuff. If we're lucky a Dirty Pirate Hooker might show up. It won't be Chicks Rock, but what else is? Come and play if you're in the neighborhood. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.

and there was Naked Rock, or Rocks. It got crowded but there will be room for you next year.

Vader, you are a minor legend. We'll miss you this year. madjohn After 18 years I have experienced all kinds of weather conditions at LP. Luckily saw the Northern lights turn on from Midnight to 4am once. You never know, and this year all bets are off for weather. And being drunkass on tequila until the next afternoon had nothing to do with outside temperature.

Raphael, Welcome to LP. Many of us will be there before the 21st so you could come straight there and make friends before it gets really busy. Or you could take a tour of Glacier Park, well worth the time. Many people are always driving into Kalispell so if you call the Meadow Peak Dropzone we can figure out a way to pick you up.

Did a side-by-side with two T-U's at the Clear Lake Water Jumps with Terry Finch in the early 80's. Looked like two gears trying to cog around each other. Solidly stable though.

Ian was my brother in skydiving. Because of him I've met many Canadian skydivers who have become close friends, have seen snowpacks fall while lunching at the top of Lake Louise in Banff, have paddled a canoe, have listened to blues at King Eddy's, and became an organizer at Lost Prairie. Blue skies my brother, I hope you have found peace. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
