I'm still trying to obtain Jean Boenish's MA
thesis that describes the environmental impact
of BASE jumping. I will probably have trouble
obtaining it from Jean herself.
The thesis addresses the environemtal impact of
legal BASE jumping versus illegal BASE jumping.
Just think how little of an effect her jump would
have made if it had been legal. She would not have
used borrowed gear that was ready to be sacrificed
for the cause.
The NPS has four copies of the thesis. They
received it the weekend Susan Oatley died on
El Cap. We can write to the NPS and ask for it.
You must request it UNDER THE FREEDOM OF
INFORMATION ACT! All is not lost yet guys.
