Who's jumped off the 76er at red rocks in vt?? I just did it like a week or so ago and i was pretty pumped on it. Never though I would do it but it felt awesome.

Who's done it?

Anywhere specific you have to aim? Like are there any rocks hiding under there? I know a lot of people do it, but I've never done it, let alone seen anyone do it in person. I've been thinking about doing it, not sure though.

you'll know it when you see it. you gotta take the right sequence of trails to get there but if you follow the coastline you should find it pretty easily. It says 76 on the top of the rock(kinda chipped off....). Its a nice cliff though because you really don't have to jump out far at all so its not sketchy. Just make sure you land straight. When I did it i landed a little back and had a massive bruise on my ass for like a week or so. :-)

There's a 65 foot cliff there, but there is no way you could jump off of it...

there are two big cliffs at lone rock, the one that is absolutely unjumpable is probably like 85, but there is also a 50ish footer that you can jump to swim out to the rock. Be warned though; make sure the water level is high, I have hit bottom 4 or 5 times I  have jumped and cut my foot pretty bad.

The real cliffs are definitely in the quarries of central vermont though
