I had been at the top of Kilimanjaro; I
had carried a heavy backpack for 2 days and climbed up to Mt. Rainier. I had camped 22 days in freezing cold to
reach Mt. Everest base camp.
But I had
never ever carried a 40 lbs backpack, swam across a deep pool, rappelled down to
a cliff face, and used a rope to lift myself up to a rocky hill. I definitely had never ever carried a heavy
back for 13 hours straight, hiked from dawn to dusk, and suffered a severe pain
on my back and shoulders for days.
This
trip, I experienced them all and as crazy as it may sound, I enjoyed every
moment of it!
