well in 1 jump area theres 2 spots 1 up front and 1 about a hour hike (half hour for experts of the terraine) down river to the big jump, the 1st jumps its real hard to hurt yourself on (but not impossable) but going to the back, theres a 60' rope you have to climb to get back to the front, thats where alot get f-ed up, also the water somewhat drys up (still alot, just not good or deep enough for jumping) and people dont realize, if theres barely water up front theres not gonna be more down stream, alot get hurt because of that too

its really not that bad if you have someone experienced with you, the first jumps are like only 30' and you can get crazy if you want, i did in my younger...skinnier years but i mainly just jump now, its quite fun, and the height thing... its really not that high (the 1st jump) once you get past that the adrenilen will keep you coming back for more!

Love the vision... except we in this neck of the woods prefer Daytona Bike Week to the Sturgis Swap Meet
.Location would be a bear... because the US is just so huge. I really love the idea and your vision to make this a "Must Attend" event... Hey, maybe have something spectacular like what I heard they do at Burning Man... at the end of the event they set fire to a HUGE wooden figure. I know... I'm just throwing ideas out there.
I'd love to attend something like this. I would really love to try different products the manufacturers produce (storage meals come to mind... I would hate to spend some major money and then hate their food), attend workshops and meet some of the people on the forum.
It's fun to let the mind run wild on things like this (I just hope afterward my mind comes back).

What about some place on the Right coast? Around Atlanta (it was good enough for filming "The Walking Dead") is Stone Mountain. I am very partial to Florida (any where but the Miami/Dade County area).
I have to say though as I write ... the best area would be.... are you ready for it???? Texas. Think about it, it is in the middle of the US, they are very prepper friendly, preppers/survivalist would not be viewed as freaks like they might on the Left Coast, got to love the food (BBQ, TexMex, etc...), there is plenty of land, it would probably be little to no red tape for Weapon vendors.
I know this is your vision... I don't want to run away with this. So stop me if I go off in the wrong direction.

Lol I almost pissed my self reading this.
Have we come up with anything for a meet and greet situation yet? I am located in Ohio and would be willing to travel a few states either way for something like this... I could go as far west as Kansas, as far south as Tennessee (maybe even texas since we have military friends there that we would like to visit with also so it'd be a double whammy) and as far east as the coast lol

Feel free to throw your ideas out there! I would love to some how get everyone together.
However, I'm not sure how many are financially able to make a trip of this size.
