Playing with MapSource GPS map at the moment (Thanks Batman!). According to the map:

#5..7 to LZ is 720..770m, to Lighthouse is 812m. From #4 it's about 50m more. Can't pinpoint the exact exit altitudes on this map. Flying across the fjord is 1.1km.

#1 to Cafe is about 2.0km, to the shoreline 1.8km, exit shows as about 920m above the water. 1.3km to fly across the fjord, about 520m to track over the water (or 430m from #3).

This is a great toy, gotta look up the numbers before we fly in the future! ;-)

bsbd!

I gotta say, this is probably one of my favorite jumps. Half the hike, most of the freefall time, and the most beautiful canopy ride ever! Not to mention landing right next to the beer!

Peace,

Re: [outrager] GPS distances for Smell?
Can someone please update the altitudes and distances?

From what I read on here recently.

Smell is 960m exit and 1.6Km to the shore, 1.7 km to the whitehouse.

What about exits 4, 5, 6 and 7? is 700m-800 m correct?

#8 is 1500m to LZ.

2.0 to White House.

That means you are flying quite a bit more than 2.5Cool. I heard you were opening quite high on top of the whitehouse. Based on the guy that said it...500' is not what he considers high.
