September at Skydive Chelan was all about crisp skies, new adventures, and the kind of views you never forget over the lake.
Inside this update, you’ll find a roundup of September’s highlights—from events and epic escapes to ways you can dive into the action yourself. Plus, get a sneak peek at what’s on the horizon for next month. It’s all here in your Chelan Sky Update.
SEPTEMBER HIGHLIGHTS
Palmer Lake gave us four days of adventure, epic loads, lakeside camping, and a crew that went all in. From morning loads over the water to nights spent camping and sharing stories by the fire, it was the perfect mix of adventure and community. It was the kind of getaway that reminds us why we chase the skies together.
Missed it? Don’t worry, more escapes are always on the horizon.
EVENTS YOU CAN’T MISS

Voices From the Dropzone
Every jump leaves a story, and our jumpers love to share theirs. From first-timers blown away by the views to seasoned skydivers who keep coming back, the feedback says it all, Skydive Chelan is an experience that sticks.
Talk about an amazing and epic trip, the people there went above and beyond especially the pilot. They treated us like family is all I can say. I can’t wait to go again. Took some amazing videos and pictures. Dude jumping with me was truly the best. He is good at what he does and takes great photos and videos. Love this place. Thanks again, can’t wait to go back. — Jeff Eastwood
