^ yes they did, but there are still places to jump if you aint a pussy about climbing with wet shoes on hahahaha

if you really want some fun cliff jumping head to the flatehead river abovd kerr damn if you ever find yourself near polson. some really fun 70 plus jumps around there. and the river is deep, and the dropoff close to shore

Ennis lake has a couple fun cliff jumping spots plus a HUGE rope swing and a little one too..

Fort Minor Basin has a fun bridge to jump. getting to the top is kinda sketchy but worth it.. cant find pix right now..



The Jefferson river has a fun bridge over by three forks kinda..also a bit tricky to get up.. hurts your feet but fun!

Besides these- the lakes of course like canyon ferry and harrison but i think those cliffs are only accessible by boat.. could be wrong though..

I can't really think of any where closer, but if someone else knows of closer places to btown(or even other places), please share ! ha

^ yeah i was gonna mention the jefferson bridge and ennis. really the only two places i know of in the boze area where you can jump (other than the greenbridge). If you're up in the Flathead area at all this summer though hit me up with a pm or somethin.. I'm from whitefish and know of some real nice cliffs that are around here

I've also heard about a nice bridge near livingston somewhere, but have never been there so i don't have any info on that.
