Let's go Bungee Jumping 2 on Saint Patricks Day

Let's go Bungee Jumping! Bungee Jumping is totally safe. Down by Mount Saint Helens is the highest bungee bridge in North America. I have made 11 jumps myself. Check out the company, the bridge, pictures at www.bungee.com (http://www.bungee.com/). The man who operates the company wrote the book (literally) on bungee jumping safety that is used in the U.S and much of the world wherever bungee jumping is done. It is a serious adrenalin rush. Someone said "the only thing you have to fear is fear itself." This is true and is proven in Bungee.com's safety accident free record. For adrenalin junkies or those wishing to face down and conquer their own fear of heights, this is it! (I am afraid of heights and I jump anyway!) This is "FUN" folks! – David Turley

Saint Patrick's Day Jump! KC, the owner of Bungee Masters, reminded me that March 17 is Saint Patrick's Day. He encourages everyone to jump in a Saint Patrick's Day costume. He added that the jumper wearing the best costume will get a prize. The winner will be determined by a vote of the jumpers. (Costume not required to jump)'

BUNGEE MASTERS' spectacular private bridge is nestled in a beautiful emerald green forest, nearly 200ft above a majestic sparkling river. We jump rain or shine.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO JUMP?
We do require a $27 deposit (per person to reserve a jump time from "The Bridge" and we accept Visa, Master Card, Check, Money Orders or small Paleozoic woodland creatures as forms of payment). The cost is $99 (plus tax = $107) for one individual to jump once or $129 (plus tax = $140) for the whole enchilada.

These prices are considerably lower if you have jumped here before.

Signed waiver and $10 Spectator fee is required for all non jumpers

Two jumps include our Dangerous Sports Club T-shirt. Members of our exclusive club get additional "frequent faller" discounts.

You still need to download and fill these two forms out even if you registered online. They are questionairres that you have to hand in when you get to the bridge.

Directions:

FROM SEATTLE -- Download printable version with map! (http://www.bungee.com/directions_seattle.html)

From Seattle take I-5 South to exit # 21 (Woodland, WA). The road will parallel the freeway south for approximately 1/4 to 1/2 mile (this is Pacific Ave). As you approach the first light, turn left (east) at the light crossing under I-5 and crossing Atlantic Ave. Important: After having crossed under the freeway, take your first (legal) right onto CC Street (before the ARCO station). You will immediately cross a bridge over the Lewis River, bear left coming off the bridge onto Hayes Road and follow the road (this road will become Cedar Creek Road just a few miles out of Woodland) toward Amboy, WA (approximately 15 miles). DO NOT turn into Amboy (on NE 221st & Cedar Cr. Rd.) but continue on road toward Chelatchie Prairie Store & Gas (approximately 3.5 to 4 miles past the turn for Amboy). Turn right at the Chelatchie Prairie Store (gas station) onto Healy Rd. Follow Healy Rd toward Tum Tum Mt. for approximately 2.2 to 2.3 miles. Please do not go into the rock pit that is off of Healy Rd. At the base of Tum Tum Mt. (Clear-cut pyramid shaped butte on your right). Look for a post on the left-hand side of the road topped with a red highway cone. (BUNGEE is written on the post and on the gate). Behind the post you will see our big black gate, our bridge is 1/4 mile down the road from the gate. The right side of gate will be unlocked during our jumps. Park your vehicle in the Bungee Parking lot to the right of the gate. You will have about a five minute walk down the private road to the bungee bridge. *Please remember to BRING CASH to the jump site! We do not have electrical or telephone service at the bridge.
