Jesse Coombs’ Description of Kayaking Metlako Falls on Eagle Creek

»Link.  

“When you are at the top of a tall waterfall like this you truly have to reconcile with yourself if you are mentally and physically up to the challenge.  There is no posturing and no bravado.  Either you are able physically and mentally in every manner and will run it.  Or you are throwing yourself off something like a stunt and will pay the consequences.”

“It is amazing how long it takes when you are in one of these drops to fall 100 feet.  When you are watching someone else it goes quickly.  When it is you is takes FOREVER. You are so keen and aware of your surroundings that time seems to slow significantly.”

Love his descriptions.

About

Paul is that guy you see in a coffee shop staring out the window, idly scratching the tip of his nose, and humming the theme to an animated Disney movie while his Apple portable is humming happily in front of him. He climbs, hikes, backpacks, skis and loves the outdoors. If you're not into sarcasm, Monty Python, or puns you may never get a single one of his jokes, which populate his speech like streams of antimatter through dilithium. Oh, and he's a geek.
