Waterfall Rappelling: An Exhilarating Alternative to Swim, Bike, Run

Thanks to extreme adventure athlete Jono Senk of Hairy Scary Evolutions, I had the opportunity on Sunday to rappel through the Cullasaja Falls near Highlands, NC.

WOW, what a RUSH!!!!

That’s the best description that I can think of to describe thousands of gallons of deafening, blinding water crashing down on my body, as I attempted to maneuver myself down 200 feet of rope as I bounced off of moss-covered rocks. Because of the water’s tension on the line, which creates a braking affect, I was in little danger of falling down, but I felt like I was fighting for my life - pure survival and intensity!

Live life boldly,
