Wow, that is wild, wicked and unreal! It's so fantastic it's almost like watching a video game fantasy of some magical realm or something.

I almost want to try it.

If I had a death wish, I'd try it with my mountain bike. Ok, maybe not.

I had to do some reading up on this. Some interesting stuff... guess official access was closed off in 2000 due to, oh, who could have foreseen this, tourists dieing while attempting it.

Hello,

Thought it'd be safe since there's a cable until I saw 4 ppl died recently.

Whoever came up behind me would probably slip and fall in what I'd be leaving behind on the trail

I can only imagine how the lawyers would have a field day with that in North America.

There is lots of places that are like that here. Not the path per say.
A few that come to mind the top of the Chief what about the Chem it has a nice drop off if you step wrong. Plenty of ridge walks in the Northwest that have drop offs on both sides. That part up the Lions is not for the faint of heart either.

I can't even figure out how you're supposed to play it? I watch the little dude until he gets to the part where he stares at the broken aquaduct and all he does is stare at it...

Well go around and up into the other aquaduct. You can go in there and do something. But it doesn't seem to do squat for me ?
