The last week we've been in The New (river gorge). We arrived for "Bridge Day", where they close traffic on the 800' bridge and let people Base Jump off it for the day. Pretty impressive stuff to watch, looking from above it was hard to judge the distance to the ground, and it was quite worrying at times watching the people that pulled really late. One guy jumped in a wheel chair, apparently he was in the wheel chair due to a previous base jumping accident, properly mental!
Some of Kims friends form DC and Baltimore came over to hang out for a few days, it has been a great few days of social climbing, camp fire beer drinking, and another van "curry night".
The weather has been quite strange, for the last week its been between 70 and 80 everyday and almost too hot to climb in the sun. Pretty weird to complain about it being too hot at the end of October, although it sure beats rain!
