High altitudes, higher spirits—that is how September feels at Skydive Chelan. Big leaps, bigger laughs, and a few wine glasses raised in freefall’s honor. This month’s newsletter brings you the best of Washington skydiving: adventure in the skies, unique tandems, and a lake escape you will not want to miss.
Experience the Thrill – Why Skydive Chelan Is Washington’s Top Adventure Destination
With over 300 days of sunshine each year, Skydive Chelan is the crown jewel of skydiving in the Pacific Northwest. Where else can you launch into freefall with a view that stretches from mountain ridges to winding rivers, all under skies so clear that “blue skies” becomes more than a saying—it becomes a promise.
Every jump here is a mix of adrenaline and scenery, a reminder that skydiving in Chelan is not just an activity, it is an adventure destination.

Tandem Bucket List Starter Pack
Most tandems end with a high five. Ours sometimes end with a toast.
At Skydive Chelan, the Winery Tandem combines the rush of freefall with a post-landing glass of wine at one of Chelan’s world-class wineries. It is a bucket-list experience you will not find anywhere else. Some come for the thrill, others for the toast—but everyone leaves with bragging rights that taste better than merlot.
Book your Winery Tandem today and add a toast to your jump
And if it is your first time jumping? Get ready for the story of a lifetime. At 120 miles per hour, you will feel the full force of freefall before settling into the smooth glide over Lake Chelan. At $279 per person, your tandem includes photos and video so you can relive the “I can’t believe I just did that” moment again and again.

Events to Dive Into – Palmer Lake Escape
Some adventures are bigger than a single day, and September has one waiting: the Palmer Lake Escape, running September 5th–8th. Four days. Endless skies. Zero inbox.
This is not just a boogie, it is a getaway. Skydiving, paragliding, speedflying, boating, hiking—everything set against the stunning backdrop of Palmer Lake. With all-inclusive meals, lakeside vibes, and a community of sky junkies who think a “rest day” is best spent chasing sunsets, this is an event that belongs on your calendar.
Spots are limited, but the stoke is not. If you are ready for an unforgettable mix of altitude and lakeside living, this is it.
