Camping Day 2 ~ The Rock Wall/Zipline

After lunch, it was time for the rock wall. The boys have been waiting for this for a long time. The rock wall is 30 feet high with a 300 feet of zip line once you climb up. We headed to the rock wall, got our instructions and begin the climbing. Below are some pictures of some of the ones who climbed the wall.

Mrs. Starr getting ready to attempt the rock wall.
She didn't make it to the top but we have to give her credit because she was the only lady to attempt the rock wall!

Tate getting ready to climb.
He was so excited because he was too little to climb last year but the harness fit him this year.

Tate climbing!
We weren't sure if he was going to be able to make it up to the top but he persevered all the way to the top:)

Everyone had a great time. We had several of our girls in our group make it up. It is fun cheering each person up and then watching what they do on the zip line such as Cesar who hung upside down by his feet while zipping. I have some video of some of the rock wall climbing so I will try to get some in a post of Cade, Ian, Tate, Rob and maybe Pastor Dale. We'll see if I have time to get that done since it takes longer to upload the videos. The next post will just be a general post of other things that happened on Day 2.
