..about time to get back into shape so i ran the stairs at tallulah gorge, errr, yeah...your legs definitely feel like they have a ball and chain attached by the time you get up to the last couple landings.

Just a few random shots without a tripod or lens changes...

I think the rock in the second pic you can actually slide down... Not sure if it's that one though. I just remember when I was really little that we would actually camp on the rock with no tents... wake up and play in the water all day. It was alot of fun...

It was alot of fun...just wait until they open the dam up to 400 & 600+ cubic feet p/ second...right now it's running at about 100 or so. I'll paddle it one day.

I know i did was i was at the topof the Eifel Tower..and yea..it sucks walkin up it.lol...only myself. I'd do it if i knew there was 25-30ft. of water with nothing in the way...errr, maybe rapel about halfway down to the outcropping and try it there first, i've only down 55' before...problem is at about 80' water can be just like concrete if you don't hit it right and jumping that height can split the bottom of your feet open if you don't have shoes on and leaning back too much can potentially "explode" your kidneys....diving is generally the safest if you're guaranteed the depth and you arch your back right as you enter the water to slow down.

Dammit i wanna BASE jump. :)
