Zip Lining in Georgia

I am in a leadership development class at work where we are learning about the company as well as other things that are good to know if you seek a leadership position at the company (public speaking class, HR tips and tricks, etc). Well, a standard thing the members of this class do every year is some sort of team building experience. Our class chose to do this crazy ziplining and ropes course in Georgia (http://www.historicbanningmills.com/canopy.html). The zipping was actually the easy part of this experience. The gosh-awful part are the rope "bridges" that you have to cross and attempt not to fall through the gaping holes in the "bridges". Yes, you are tied off during this experience, but that doesn't offer that much comfort because if you do fall off, how in the crud are you supposed to get back up on the bridge??? Anyways I can check this off my list for posterity, but no more rope bridges for me. I will zip with anyone though - that was fun!
Everyone is all smiles as we are gearing up.
Yes, that is A cable I am walking across. So glad this is recorded on film!!!
Zipping over the 3-story lodge, no problem!
I am the dot in the middle of the trees - check out that form!

Graceful landing. :)
