The Jump for Kids Fundraiser was a huge success. The event raised over $15,000 for the children with special needs in Twin Falls. At the same time, Miles set a new world record for most BASE jumps in a day at 57 while hiking over 27,500 ft doing so. He shatterred the old record of 22. If the storm didn't blow in at 8:30pm stopping the efforts with three and a half hours to go, he would have easily done over 60 jumps which is hiking the equivilent of Mt. Everest from sea level. The city of Twin Falls is proud of the accomplishment and Miles is going to be recognized for promoting Twin Falls' tourism and given a good neighbor award by the Chamber of Commerce.
Great work D. We are proud of you here in Tahoe!
