All this talk about NPS protests/meetings has got me thinking. Terminal wall jumps, specifically with a wingsuit, are one of my distant goals in the parachuting world. I always assumed I would be traveling to Norway for this.

All legality issues aside, focusing strictly on geography, does USA have walls that rival the famous European ones, in terms of altitude, and whatever else makes a terminal wall attractive to a wingsuit jumper or tracker?

Legal no. But there are some big walls just across the border in Mexico.

Certainly. Even more so if you include Canada and Mexico, where it is legal too.

Nothing is as well organized or accessible as Norway is though. Doing anything terminal in North America will always remain an expedition style jump, unlike the jump-trains that exist in Norway.

If it did, I wouldn't be discussing them on an internet forum.

I didn't ask where and how, just in general if they exist in this country. Is that too much information to release?

My advice to you, is this:

When you're ready to even consider jumping your wingsuit from a cliff, you'll know where the good ones are. They do exist.

Does this answer your question?
