21. take a trapeze class (50 x 50)


 While hiking a via ferrata is not taking a trapeze course, per se, there are elements that qualify it into the same kind of category. Mainly, a) my body was attached to something stable with bungee cords, and 

b) it required a rejection of a fear of heights. 


Xy and I went to NRocks over fourth of July weekend last year to their via and it was AMAZING. There are "shark fins" of sandstone in Seneca Rocks, WV. It took us about four hours to hike about a mile of fixed-anchor, professionally-guided rock climbing. We gained 1085 feet in elevation, crossed a suspension bridge that is 150 feet high and 200 feet long, and reached exposed heights of 280 feet.
