oh man... I just got back from Dinner after going to Morse Hill with my cluster. (BTW the margaritas during dinner was HOT!)
Pictures are not us, just pictures taken from their website.
One of the stuff we did was a low ropes course called Mohawk Trail, where we had to walk on like a wire a foot above the line and stuff, and we have to stay on and all that, it was hard as hell! to hold the ropes and make sure everyone stays up and all that..
It was really hard to stay up (not as hard as the High Ropes), and you needed to keep people on the line. Its harder than it looks.
afterwards we like did this high ropes thing.... and i swear, i thought high was only like a couple feet... This one thing we did was called "Pamper Pole", it was like a 40-50 feet pole above the ground, we climbed it and jumped off from the top, with a rope tied to us to hold us up afterwards. It was really hard espically at the top to manage to stand up on the top of the pole... it took guts, but everyone did it..
here is a picture from their website.. it doesn't look like a big deal in the picture, but you are like more or less at the top of the trees.
Lastly we did this "Playground" thing going vertically, for like 50-60 feet, it was scary, i only made it up like 3/4... I just had no strength by the end of the day. In the end everyone that came particiapted and did the events, and I come away with new respect for our cluster because we understand what we are scared of, and have helped each other overcome these things.
Here is the Vertical Playground. This went at least like 10 feet higher than the Pole.... I got to the first tire, but I just didn't have the arm strength anymore after a whole day of climbing and running...
I seriously hope we do this for Spring Training or next years' training. I would love it.
