    #rappelling

  2. Last week, I put away all my #caving and underground vertical gear that we used in the cave rescue course, then pulled out #hiking, #climbing, #paddling, and hotel travel stuff for that week's adventures.
    This past Monday, I packed climbing, #backpacking, #rappelling, and car #camping gear for *this* week's adventures.
    I'm tempted to go #biking tomorrow, just so I will have touched basically every piece of non-snow-related outdoor gear I own within three weeks! 😁

    Also I keep meaning to post about this stuff, but we are too busy *doing* it (and packing for it, and unpacking / cleaning gear from it) for me to sit down and write about it. Maybe next week... 😇

  3. Right before #rappelling down highest building in #Victoria to raise funds for #BCChildrensHospital.
    From a few years ago. I was event photographer & was asked to substitute for someone who chickened out. I had 15 minutes of training on the street & was going down the high rise, 20 minutes after starting quickie training 😆

  8. "...A California Highway Patrol helicopter was called in to help rescue Wardell from behind the powerful waterfall, using a hoist system where they lowered a rescue team member into the water feature to secure Wardell and extract him to safety.

    Wardell, alive and responsive, told deputies he had come off his rappel lines and got trapped behind the waterfall because of the extreme hydraulics of the river...."

  13. My bad knee is the reason I'm doing more kayaking and less hiking. But today I tried wrapping my knee and managed to get in 9 miles with NO PAIN.
    Through cobble badlands, rappelling down slippery slopes, through open fields, and, trust me, bushwhacking through deep brush and wild dense forest where you can't take pictures.

    I missed this so much!

  15. It’s been a year since I went to Costa Rica. It feels like so much longer. Time isn’t moving the way I’m used to, anymore. It’s going so quickly. #WaterfallRappelling #rappelling #waterfall #CostaRica

  16. Okay, haven't been out on the rocks I'm awhile, but at least the gear is hung up again. #rappelling #climbing

  18. I went waterfall rappelling in Là Fortuna. Believe it or not, I found it very relaxing. The biggest jump was 65 meters. Now I want to start rock climbing again when I get home. #Belaying #Rappelling #Waterfall #WaterfallRappelling #PuraVida #CostaRica

  19. CW: Death in Death Valley NPS, climber

    "Death rappel" -- it appears a climber canyoneering rappelled off the end of his rope. #climbing #safety #rappelling
