Re: [Zebu] WY big walls
ive made trips for last several years into WY wilderness areas. We have opened 3 bigwall WS jumps deep in the backcountry. They arent jumps that are achieved so easily like in EU.. they all have high altitude exits and LZ's that arent too forgiving. as far as i know, there havent been many jumpers venture out there.. 1 exit requires over 30 miles of hiking. another requires at least 20 miles. There is also one that requires 20 miles hiking and a 9 pitch 5.11 route, but the exit is awesome and overhung. pm me for detailz

Hey buddy, after that response, I'll be surprised if you get too many takers.

Sounds like a fun adventure to me
Maybe not the 5.11 multi-pitch...at least not right now. Backcountry BASE is something I've always wanted to do, but I definitely am going to take my time with it. Thanks so much to everyone that PM'd me. If anyone has any first or second hand info, I'm still looking for more! To be specific, it'd be sans-wingsuit which I know cuts some exits out.
