A series of cables were set up crossing nearby Alkali canyon, some more than 400 feet across. The idea of dangling several hundred feet about the ground made me want to pee my pants but once I got into the harness and felt the security system I started to calm down. In the end, stepping over the cliff's edge was more exhilirating than anything, and flying across the canyon from 200 plus feet in the air, watching the river roll by below, turned out to be surprisingly peaceful. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://community.active.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/38-8578-4528/IMG_9674.jpg"><img height="465" src="http://community.active.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/38-8578-4528/620-465/IMG_9674.jpg" width="620"/></a></p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>And true to Colorado style, the clouds parted, the rain cleared and it was a crisp and sunny Rocky-Mountain day.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://community.active.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/38-8578-4529/IMG_9673.jpg"><img height="465" src="http://community.active.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/38-8578-4529/620-465/IMG_9673.jpg" width="620"/></a>&nbsp; </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:6be972a1-a256-41f3-af06-0cf3c560ce09] --> colorado zip-line 4-eagle-ranch zip-lining Sat, 07 Jun 2008 04:53:46 GMT mvalenti http://community.active.com/blogs/valenti/2008/06/06/zip-line-adventure-at-4-eagle-ranch 2008-06-07T04:53:46Z 1 year, 5 months ago 0 http://community.active.com/blogs/valenti/comment/zip-line-adventure-at-4-eagle-ranch http://community.active.com/blogs/valenti/feeds/comments?blogPost=8578
