Rock Climbing at Crazy Horse

Sunday I decided to go rock climbing and repelling. My friend Megan who had been to Thailand 3 summers ago said it was one of her favorite parts of the trip. So I found the best company and booked a trip. It was amazing but I was VERY TIRED after. I signed up for the beginners course because it has been several years since I had done any climbing. It ended up being really great because there were only three of us in the group with two guides, so we got to go at our own pace. The other two people in my group were about the same age as me and from Australia. They got me extra excited about visiting in a month!


In the morning we learned to tie the knots, how to belay someone and the other basics. We got to try climbing and belaying twice. Then we hiked to the top of the mountain to go repelling back down into a cave.

 View from the top.


 

 

 Daniella went first and then it was my turn. Her boy friend David went last so he could take pictures of us. :D She has some pictures of me coming back down into the cave that she is going to email me when she gets done.

After lunch we went climbing again. The three of us were pretty tired so we only did three more climbs before heading back.
