Chris' Adventures

Rappelling and Via Ferrata - Arizona

I'm back in town taking an unexpected break from the CDT. Even though I'm here dealing with a horrible situation, Kimberly and I are trying to make the most of our time together. Neither of us is particularly good at sitting still for very long.

On Thursday, Kimberly and I went to Antelope Ridge Adventure Park to climb the slot canyon via ferrata and do some rappelling. The weather was perfect, and we had a great group of people to share the adventure with.

This was my first time rappelling and doing a via ferrata, and I can safely say I'm hooked! The via ferrata was especially exciting for me. I loved the combination of climbing, exposure, and navigating the canyon, and I already can't wait to do it again.

It was a much-needed adventure and a welcome distraction from everything else going on.
