The easy part. |
The first levels were easily accessible. We jumped on rocks, trod on damp forest ground and balanced on trunks of fallen trees. We thought that this would be easy when suddenly the foot path disappeared and the forest was replaced by rocks. Not wanting to be a wuss in front of the other, we climbed on. The ragged rock formations were blunt on the first few meters but the higher we went, the rockers were getting sharper and thinner. At one point, we asked our guide, "What happens if we lose our balance and fall?" "You die." Our guide casually replied. We didn't want to die yet and we didn't want to back out after getting that far so slowly but surely, we stepped/climbed/clambered/did whatever it takes to survive until we reached the top. I was mentally telling myself to think of this as preparation in case of a zombie apocalypse or another war happens and the cities get ravaged and we will be forced to hide into jungles, cliffs or mountains.
No words. |
After the downward traverse, the adrenaline has worn off and we felt tired so we went back to our room, had breakfast and took a nap before our next adventure.
