FYI-I'm not looking for a mentor!

As far as I know there are no active Base jumpers living in Southern Oregon. I HOPE I'M WRONG!! I do travel up to Bend, Eugene and sometimes Portland area, but dont know were the best sites are.
So far I have only jumped bridges, with little interest in other objects. I would still like to see what the options are.


I'm really hoping to find someone that has jumped the 350' span on the coast.

I will be at Perrine for the memorial boogie, we can chat there.

Nice Photo! Can I get a copy? I have very few photos with that angle.

i'm from the SWOC (southwest oregon coast) area. Most of oregon is uninhabited... so jumping would be easy, minus the weird winds I have been told about. But there might be a 600+ft "B" close to cali on the coast....

I have. PM me. I also know a Southern Oregon jumper. I'll see if I can dig up a phone number for you.

on the west coast, as a skydiver i never wanted to be an experienced base jumper so much as this last weekend, I was in the area on a fishing trip and I took a stroll accross the bridge. beautiful, just an amazing visual of the ocean, it looks like the trail to hike out might be a bit harry for the walk back out. other than that it looks perfect

I'm one of the Portland jumpers, and I've taken a trip down the coast with BASE 350 and Guppie Skydiver #1 to the Span you're referring to. It was a fun adventure that involved a great jump in the wind and rain... unfortunately the climb out was far more epic than the jump. I lost my radio, but the gods blessed me by giving me a hammer I found sticking out of the mud. It came in handy as I used it to grab tree roots and pull myself up. :-)

I'm planning a trip back to that span when the weather changes.
