    Just wondering how many people have completed BASE entirely in 1 state. Some states, I'm sure, are impossible to get all 4 objects like maybe FL and other flat states. I remember some guys from MO talking about it but I never heard if they completed it. I'll start by adding that it has been done in NC by 8 different people so far.
    Any other states been done???

    So far I've only got 8 states and 7 countries.

    I know Todd has done it here in WA, though I don't think he ever sent in for his number. I'd be there too, if it weren't for that damned sandwich eatin', hallway sitting security guard on building X and my good judgement on building Y. Maybe I'll get building Z soon....

    Several of our neighbors to the south have done it, a few of them in less than 24 hours.

    I know it's been done by at least 2 persons in GA, myself notwithstanding. It has possibly been done by one other and maybe a handful more, but I'm not sure about the accuracy of that and I don't know of anyone else who positively claims to have done so beyond the aforementioned 2. I think I'll have to just go and complete this pretty soon... and not any dang tower cranes as the S. Need a real S fo' sho'

    later,

    edit: is there central numberkeeper for the state base #'s? is usba keeping these?

    I don't think anyone is keepeing these numbers, I was just curious :D :D
    I'll keep track of them if no-one is already doing it.

    OK so it looks like this so far...
    All 4 objects in 1 state
    NC - 8
    GA - 2 at least
    WA - 1 at least

    So how about any others? CA, AZ, MO, UT etc... I know the sites are out there; are the jumpers?

    and BASE in all 50 states...
    TruckerBASE, how many do you have???? More than most, I'm sure!

    It's been done in KY by me. I'd be interested in knowing if anyone else has done it.

    I bet there are a whole lot (over a hundred) of folks with California BASE. It's just such a big place, with so many nice objects, and so many active jumpers.

    If I do a headcount, just of people I know have jumped all four in California, I get to 31. I'm certain there are tons more I can't think of, don't know, or have forgotten.

    I also know that some Arizona guys did BASE in a day a while back, so you can add at least those two. Offhand, I can think of three or four more who I bet have done it there.

    And didn't someone post here a few months ago claiming to have completed Idaho BASE?

    I bet there's a lot more than we can imagine.

    Well, an 'A' in all 48 im willing to compete. Base in all 48 would be awesome if someone can tell me how to get an 18 wheeler to all 4 objects. All 48 with BASE I dont see happening. No cliffs in Any of the flatlands prairie states that ive ever seen. But, as the saying goes, when chasing the ladies half the fun is the hunt. Ill work on it...

    BASE in Oregon :-)
    It was a heck of a lot of fun as well.... although in the words of a very nice person whose company I enjoy:
    "It's great you're jumping in Portland, there's lots of objects to jump they're just... well... they're all low and nasty"
    "We prefer to call them 'advanced' objects"

    ;-)

    I have an old copy of an early Colorado log book somewhere around here. It includes a list of Colorado BASE numbers. The log book ends in the early 90's, and has around eight or so numbers listed in it. I can't remember them all, but I do remember that the first few were a well known climber (now deceased in the Himalayas), BASE 44 (probably still lurking this board), another jumper who's name is a mouthful (and who's whereabouts I don't know), and the owner of the logbook (a suicide about ten years back, after a BASE accident left him paraplegic).

    I'd imagine that no one has done Colorado BASE since then, though, as I know for a fact that there are no BASE jumpers in Colorado any more. :P

    THe Portland Crowd (Dwain, Dr Nik, Ray ???) did it in under 24 hours around Oregon. Tom B has done it 5 times in under 24 hours in 2 different states (Queensland & NSW) in Australia. Jimmy F has done it once or twice in NSW, Australia.
