You've got 87 jumps and still no clue about site naming?

And you guys have no clue about copying the name repeatedly in the subject line?

To Jump-it33: Go scope it out yourself and see what it would take to get away with it completely unseen.

Re: [Jump-it33] [site naming] bridge, oregon
first off, I've never stepped foot in you state. thus I've never jumped the bridge in question.

secondly, site naming is generally not taken well. if locals ARE jumping the site, they may not want the general public to know.

why not simply ask around at the dz (or here) to find some locals, and then ask them privately? it's best to develop trust before asking questions that essentially ask, "do you consider violating laws at this site?"

would you post online, anywhere, asking for somebody to sell you drugs?

Off the topic, but yes, it actually happens quite often.

Actually i do know about site naming but i have been out of the sport for three years and it slipped my mind. sorry. i wasnt planning on jumping it anyway i just heard about old timers and wasnt sure if it was true or not.

I saw some tourist articles on this site and one of them included a statement saying something like "dont even think about bunjee jumping or BASE jumping this because it probably wouldnt be safe" and blah blah... so if there has been jumping there someone is probably aware of it... but judging by pics ive seen it looks pretty enclosed with vegetation and such...
