granitepeak 0 #1 October 18, 2007 Greetings from Montana. I love to jump but I am unfortunately about 7 hrs from LP. I try to get jumps in when I travel- last jump in August. This website helps ease the pain between layoffs. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peej 0 #2 October 18, 2007 Welcome to the forums! I know what you mean, DZ.com helped me get through a six month layoff due to injury. Enjoy the forums, see you around! Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #3 October 18, 2007 Welcome to the forums! Oh, and I'm editing your subject line; all caps makes it seem like you are yelling at us. My eyes can't take the abuse. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granitepeak 0 #4 October 18, 2007 Sorry about the caps- inexperienced poster. I am planning on a trip to Eloy in Decemeber. I did most of my student jumps/A liscense @ Skydive Arizona. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lastchance 0 #5 October 31, 2007 Hello granitepeak. Seen your post for the !st time today. Welcome to DZ.com. Just thought I'd let you know about Skydive MT in Ronan @ 406-251-4338 and Silvertip Skydivers in Hamilton @406-239-3558. They are a little closer than LP albeit not much as you are on the other end of the state. But they also do some winter jumps in Hamilton when the weather allows. I also do some jumps here in Helena but there is no real dropzone. I just jump at the airport here and sometimes into the cow pasture next to my house. Lost Prairie also does some winter jumping at the Kalispell City airport. I would call all of them first before making the trip though as the weather on your end of the state can be altogether different than this end. Hope to see you at the DZ's soon. I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
granitepeak 0 #6 November 1, 2007 Lastchance, Thanks for the info on Ronan and Hamilton. I may be in Helena Nov 10/11 for a cyclocross race. Always looking to connect with other jumpers from the state. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
