Has anyone ever jumped R*%$# M&$^^$ ?
 Wondering if anyone has jumped this mountain before.

One of the first ones just inside Jasper national park Alberta.

I have looked at it over the years and wondered about it. From the pictures I have taken of it I think there is a good chance of finding an exit.
As far as I know it is still virgin......

What were your thoughts on the landing? I haven't been practicing my landings on 45 degree scree slopes lately.

Landing would be on the rubble slopes in the lower left of attached picture. If you did a go and throw you might make a better LZ. The slopes are not that bad to land on, the high elevation makes it a bit more thumpy.....
I also think it is likely to take a bit of a rappel to get to an exit.

Yes, wingsuit would be best; it is a pretty big piece of rock. I would like to be ready to wingsuit it before the end of this season but I will have to check the calendar and see when my balls are scheduled to arrive........
