Haha that’d be cool. Yeah that’s Steve he was living in Burnaby BC at the time. We all jumped at Abbotsford, Pitt Meadows and Chilliwack. And around the northwest at Kapowsin WA and a few places. He’s done Bridge Day a few times near Fayetteville WV. The other guy is Lee. He was in town from Hell, Grand Cayman. Other Steve was above us 16’ getting ready to FF from the car deck crazy idiot it’s only 390’ but there was 6’ of accumulated snow in the gulley. Here’s where the bridge is. You can hang out there on the maintenance catwalk all day and do multiple jumps and no one even knows you’re there. 49.61714° N, 121.04410° W. Not far from here near Princeton there was an ore conveyor at the molybdenum mine that you could do but it was risky. Lots of Volkswagen sized boulders in the bottom of the Canyon. Lynn who was out of the frame in the pic broke her femur down there jumping by herself and had to army crawl 3 hours out of the canyon to her vehicle. Not smart. But her BF had passed away recently doing an antenna and she kind of had a death wish for a while. All the people at the DZ that BASE jumped were scorned by the old timers. We all did the car deck on the Lions Gate bridge in Vancouver a couple of times. Once I climbed up the inside of the North uprights on that bridge for half an hour but didn’t jump because the winds were 180° wrong. My buddy Smiley did one from there once just as a concert and a BC Lions game were letting out and got his canopy hung up on the car deck railing. 2 hour high angle rescue from VFD, big fine and lost his gear. I love skydive people lol.
