[jacobbis4lovers]

So, you do all the ropes and then repel down the wall? Which one is harder? The ropes or the repelling?

[HermitintheRain]

@jacobbis4lovers most people had the most trouble with the single rope bridge. trick is to trust your foot for balance, and move quickly. some had trouble with the repelling because either they didn't trust the rope or the person holding the rope at the bottom wasn't holding it right.

@jacobbis4lovers When I did it we rappelled first then did the ropes. Rapelling is easy because you simply just need to fall. The ropes are a bitch!

I was threr in the summer of 1959. They had that, (or something very similar then).

I too missed it. A hurricane was coming through the area, they shut the post down and sent everybody to the barracks.

I went to sleep early that evening...and when I woke up, all the windows were broken out of the building and the big pine trees were just bowled over.

Some things never change.

We got a pass on this due to a tornado alert going on. so we sat in WWII huts doing radio training instead
