Rappelling



We went with Uncle John and cousins Noah and Brig to American Fork Canyon for an evening of rappelling. My boys have rappelled with their scout troops and they wanted to teach their cousins. Great Fun!

Mark was at the top making sure we were all clipped in safely.
That's Alex on the wall.

Double rapel with Jake and Alex

Yes, that is me (Heidi) I tried it out - mostly with my eyes closed. I am deathly afraid of heights. I even went down a second time.

This canyon has huge slabs of Granite rock. We had a picnic dinner on one.


We even got Grandma K to come and watch us - but we couldn't talk her into getting on the cliff.

This was a beginning rappelling cliff - for us rookies. 
The boys love to do bigger rapell's down at Zions Canyon.
