Canyoning. Basically rappelling/sliding down waterfalls and jumping into deep pools along a mountain river. I had the opportunity to do it Skeno, an expert, with others from the CAI along the river Lerici in the Beigua park. Unfortunately Sara could not come down with us, tomorrow they sew her anterior cruciate ligament together... but this also allowed us to get a few photos as she came with us to the start with a camera (these photos). The only other camera was a Go-pro lost twice in deep pools, the second one kept it. Weather was not great but when you are soaked form head to toe the rain makes little difference. This is all part of a program to find different ways of getting down once one hikes/climbs up. Even when I was hiking in high school (that is when I had ankles and knees) down down a steep slope was the least preferred. Going down skiing is great, as I love it, but other ways are also interesting. This was one! have to say it was also beautiful as you find yourself in steep canyons with deep clear pools in a mountain environment.
