Our first visit (the one you mentioned) was the best for climbers:) The second visit had climbers but none were brave (crazy) enough to stand up when they got to the top.

It was at least 60 feet wide with the log about 12 feet above it. I unhitched my waist belt and thought about unlacing my boots but decided not. Half way across I froze. My hiking buddy came back, took my hand and helped me back to the start. After I calmed down he said, "Lets find someplace else." 45 years later I (still) revel at the opportunity to lend a hand at a tight spot.MFHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14495926455768090923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062337474734435253.post-18362815789530186012016-10-08T05:59:56.997-07:002016-10-08T05:59:56.997-07:00Allow us to show you the "Fins!"Allow us to show you the "Fins!"Box Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062337474734435253.post-66106791251376646742016-10-08T05:25:53.769-07:002016-10-08T05:25:53.769-07:00We really enjoyed that hike also.
