Repelling down the canyon to the river

I took this photo from a platform over the river, looking down onto a platform that straddles a narrow canyon.  You see a cable on the right.   That cable is the method of getting from the platform where I am to the platform where you see people below.

This is part of the zip lining course at the adventure tour of Hacienda Guachipelin, about 90 minutes northeast of Tamarindo.  At this point in the course, you repel down towards the river.  The next step is to do a Tarzan swing across the river.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.  This week we are showing photos of Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia, a very picturesque spot.

Quite scary!

Lowell said...

What? Are you crazy? People do this stuff? For fun? Yikes!

Judy said...

Oh yeah, like that is going to happen. No thank you.

I also did this in Argentina, but zip lining was my favourite. Love this point of view!

Sharon said...

You are quite the adventurer!

Lois said...

That shot is making me a little dizzy!

Memphis MOJO said...

I like adventure, but think I'd have to pass on this one!

Let me know when you are finished so I can open my eyes.

Usually it's caused by the passion communicated in the article I read. And after this article "Repelling down the canyon to the river". I was actually excited enough to post a thought :) I do have some questions for you if it's
okay. Could it be simply me or do a few of these responses appear as if they are left by brain dead
