I've never been that high up before, so I might find discover some inner height issues I never knew I had!Annehttp://www.slowtrav.com/blog/andasamo/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7253009424316586030.post-80368050091675194712010-04-18T20:15:05.578-07:002010-04-18T20:15:05.578-07:00WOW!!

I'm glad you liked my shot. I tried not to look down except for this one time and it got me a little woozy. I do have a little bit of vertigo myself but it only affects me when I'm in motion like in a car or boat so I was luckily able to still do this hike. I know what you mean about having your sights on certain hikes. I've been trying to convince my friends to do Macchu Picchu with me but we have concerns about the altitude sickness. This was 4,000+ high and I had a slight headache going up and my friend had some nausea...so maybe Macchu Picchu maybe a hike we may not be able to do based on the altitude. <br /><br />Hi Maya, thanks so much for your comments. I have a feeling you could do this hike. I remember reading that one difficult hike you did where there were so many obstacles and yet you and your husband completed the hike. Sometimes I think we can surprise ourselves. I know I surprised the heck out of myself for doing this one. <br /><br />Thanks again everyone for your comments. Hope you all have a great week.Trekcaprihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00104236389771077449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7253009424316586030.post-38946828092398206432010-04-13T01:07:54.599-07:002010-04-13T01:07:54.599-07:00Now that was a vertical climb!

I would love to go back and photograph it again. <br /><br />Hi Barb, thanks so much for your comments too. It was a pretty cool experience that you kind of look back and say that was hard and scary but so much fun and rewarding at the same time. :)<br /><br />Thanks again M and Barb.

BUT I have to say I am in awe of your challenge of hiking this devil! I admired it from a tent on the ground under a cloud-free day many, many years ago. Incredible opportunity and photo.

But there were these woodend planks going across the rock for grip except for that one overhang section so the climb wasn't too bad. I hope you are having a great weekend too.<br /><br />Hi Maria, I'm not afraid of heights but I have to say that when I hit that overhang section visions of falling struck fear in me like I have not felt before. For some reason I kept worrying that the cables would come out. It was pretty rewarding once we got to the top. Enjoy your weekend too.<br /><br />Thanks so much again Annie and Maria for your commments and liking my photos. Have a wonderful Sunday.Trekcaprihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00104236389771077449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7253009424316586030.post-15664410212479514312010-04-10T23:14:08.385-07:002010-04-10T23:14:08.385-07:00As someone who's terrified of heights and with...As someone who's terrified of heights and with sweaty palms, I say my hat's off to you for doing that climb.
