Cliff Jumping & Abseiling off a mountain :)



:) So two saturdays ago we payed $100 for a full day of hiking, cliff jumping, and abseiling!! It was awesome!!! We left around 7am to eat breakfast with our tour guides... we were given the low down and our pack lunches and began our hike around 8am through a place near Gordan's bay! It took us about an hour to get to the cliffs in the middle of the beautiful gorge! The weather was SO HOTT that day too, but beautiful as always, needless to say we were stoked when we made it and were able to jump in the crystal clear gorge pools! The cliff we jumped off of was abotu 7meters which is roughly 20ft :) ya i know we are pretty BA ;) just kidding but it was pretty scary looking over the edge lol. After about an hour we continued our hike which took another hour and a half and then we were harnessed up and propelled ourselves down the side of a 70meter mountain side with rope one by one! IT WAS SO COOL!!! Half way down we were in a waterfall and the view was GORGEOUS :D it took about 3-4hours before everyone finished.. my friend Kyle and i were the first ones to go so when we finished we took naps on the rocks next to the other gorge pool catching a fantastic tan! When everyone finished we hiked back to the place and had dinner then they brought us all back home! It was a long but awesome day! So now i can cross cliff jumping & abseiling down a mountain off my bucket list!! Sky diving is next (sorry mom) ;)
