About Us

We are one of the safest and most professional skydive operations in Colorado! Not only are all of our instructors extremely qualified but most are also full time parachute instructors at the Air Force Academy. 

We are also the most scenic dropzone in Colorado!  We are located just minutes from the Royal Gorge Bridge - Colorado's Number One Tourist Attraction!  If that's not enough, we are also a United States Parachute Association Group Member Dropzone and have pledged to uphold the Basic Safety Requirements of that organization.
We are conveniently located at the Fremont County Airport which offers a paved runway that is several thousand feet long, making it much safer than small dirt strips. The airport is full service and has facilities available for your use including the new Barnstormer's  Cafe.  We operate a 15 Place Cessna Caravan and two 5 place Turbocharged Cessna 206's making it the largest fleet of jump aircraft in Colorado! 

Canon City offers many tourist attractions that you can combine with your Skydive adventure.  Brochures are available at the airport that outline local places of interest. There are plenty of local hotels and campgrounds in the area and in the winter, Monarch Resort is just over an hour from our location making us a perfect starting place for a ski and skydive adventure! During Spring, Summer, and Fall you can also combine your skydive with a white water rafting trip down the Arkansas River.

- The Barnstormer's Cafe is now Open for Business! Located on the airport and open daily from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM

- Free Wireless High Speed Internet available on Drop Zone! Bring your Wi-Fi card!
