I was wondering if anyone knows the exact location of the Jaw drop in kamloops BC.
I am planning to map out a bunch of famous freeride gaps and drops on google earth so if you have the locations of other famous ones that would be great. I have already found the rampage site and the ord road gap.

Thanks

Go east on ord road in kamloops and look on the north side of the road til you see a round gray thing and the ord road gap is to the west of that.

I thought it was the Jaw drop but I guess I am wrong.

How do I find the rampage site on google earth?

Or the Jah Drop, or the ord gap.

thanks

I don't know where the jah drop is so I couldn't help you with that. If you look at my other post there are directions for the ord road gap. And this is where I think the rampage site is: Go to Virgin, Utah and find Kolob Road. Follow the road northeast out of Virgin and the rampage site is the first mountain on the north side of the road.

the first guy who tried it ripped off his jaw and broke his fingers, and when he tried to write JAW drop it accidentally came out JAH since he killed his wrist.

well its not called the "jaw" drop first of all, its called the "Jah" drop. Jah has to do with the rastafarian religion which often begets reggae which is often listened to by mountain bikers and when jah replaces jaw in "Jah drop" it creates a pun which is always fun.

no one has landed it yet.
