Saturday September 21 Sand Creek Adventures Jordan, Minnesota

I drove to Sand Creek Adventures in Jordan, Minnesota. 

I met Al, the property owner and his son, Duane, who owns the Zipline. 

My awesome guides were Calvin, Howie and Julie. 

Great views zipping over Sand Creek! 

One line had a slide to start the zip! It was cool...I tried it forward and backwards!

There were 3 lines that we zipped twice! 

Loved it! 















Saturday September 21 Kerfoot Canopy Tours Henderson, Minnesota

In Henderson, Minnesota, I met Lee and Eva Kerfoot, the owners of Kerfoot Canopy Tours. 

I thought I was in heaven when they told me there were 14 lines! 

Wow! I had a great time! 

The views were wonderful! 

I have some video to post later, thanks Jared! 

My awesome guides were Jared, Brian and Travis. 

I also met the manager, Mark!








Friday September 20 Soaring Eagle@ Rushmore Cave Keystone, South Dakota

Wednesday September 20 Heise Zip Ririe, Idaho


Had a great time zipping at Heise Zip in Ririe, Idaho!

Met the owner Mike Quinn and manager Linda Mann. 

Linda drove us near the top of the mountain where we had a short hike to the first of 10 nice lines. The views were great! 

The elevation was approximately 5000 feet. The longest line was over 1600 ft. 

My awesome guides were Aleksi and Tyson. 

Wonderful time! 

Nice sunny day and the temp got to 61.

Have pics and a video to upload later.

Tuesday September 19 Heise Campground Ririe, Idaho

Stayed at Heise Campground, just down the street from Heise Zip, also owned by Mike Quinn. 

Very nice stay.

Monday September 16 Big Sky Zipline Big Sky, Montana

Had a great afternoon Ziplining at Big Sky Mountain Resort. Zipped 4 lines. Rode the ski lift to the top and zipped down. A little walking, but mostly downhill. 

They have another course with a 20 minute hike, but I would have had to stay another day and with the 7500+ elevation, I decided to pass. On that tour I would have been able to go upside down. 

I met Sheila, the PR director and she showed me around. Huge place with a lot to offer. My awesome guides were Adam, Lindsay and Max. The views were spectacular and I had a great time! 

The day after I left, it snowed all day.
