Where It All Began
Harvey Family History
John Harvey and his wife Christina immigrated from England to the US in the mid-1800s, settling in the breathtaking Snohomish River Valley, flanked by the Cascades Mountain Range to the East and Possession Sound to the West. To this day the Harvey Family owns and operates the airfield.
The History of
Skydive Snohomish
Skydiving has been a part of Harvey Field since the 1950s, and many of the sport’s pioneers honed their skills in the skies above Snohomish. In 1999, Tyson Harvey founded Skydive Snohomish, and through his unwavering commitment to safety, personal connections, and professionalism, he transformed SkySno into an internationally renowned skydiving destination. In 2025, Mayon and Elizabeth Hight took the helm, staying true to the values Tyson established while bringing fresh energy and enthusiasm to this remarkable legacy.
