Advanced Canyoning Trip

Em in the 3rd Rappel
Originally uploaded by Mike Rettberg.

So, on our day off, Brian set up an Advanced Canyoning Trip for us. A car picked us up at 8:30am. We drove about 20 minutes out of town and hiked for 20 minutes to a practice rappel. Our guides, Thanh and Hoan, ran us through the basics.

We then proceeded on an unbelievable adventure through a river canyon in which we completed 5 separate rappels, slid down a natural water slide, and jumped off of a cliff. All-in-all a very exhausting and exciting day. Highly recommended to adrenaline junkies (i.e. Dennis).

In this photo Em is rappelling down a waterfall, which was something of a theme. Check out the rest of the set. There are some great shots.
