Extreem Sport





You Should Try Ice Climbing





Cold, challenging, and downright scary
And there's no way the snow is breaking your fall




Ok so after taking this little quiz I had to laugh because just the other day when I was hiking at Mt. Baker I stopped and stood looking at a cliff where we have seen ice climbers in the winter. I stood there and thought about them and wondered if I could ever bring myself to do something like that. I have done indoor rock climbing and I want to sky dive and hang glide, parasail, etc. but ice climbing...I don't know!

I found that quiz through one of your friend's blogs--or friend of a friend or something like that--I don't remember! Probably the same place you found it but I can't remember where it was--I was just meandering around through various links (it was an enjoyable adventure ;-)). I took it even though I don't even do NORMAL sports, let alone extreme sports. Lol I'm supposed to try snowboarding, I believe. I don't think I shall, but I do like that idea better than ice climbing or skydiving. :-)

Yeah, well, iceclimbing is the out edge isn't it? I know I would rather do hang-gliding too

Tina I am glad you enjoyed your adventure through the "local links"! I am so happy you stop by and comment. It's nice to be connect with you a little more after all these years.
Have you ever been skiing? It's actually quite fun but I haven't ever tried snowboarding...Maybe you should try it sometime. It never hurts to push yourself a little! No that doesn't mean that I am going to try ice climbing but I think you know what I mean!

Yes I am afraid that ice climbing is a little beyond me at the moment. Hang gliding or sky diving may well happen one of these days! We shall see. LOL

I find climbing of any kind to be great fun. Whether I have ropes or not:) Scary I know, but I don't usually go very high. I have never heard of ice climbing. Sounds fun.

Crystal, I'm seriously considering hiking. Lol Is that pushing myself enough? I have never been skiing and I have to say it doesn't interest me. I can imagine it being fun . . . for the right person. A very mild form of sledding sounds kind of fun though. I might be adventerous enough to try that if the opportunity arose. :-)

Tina, Tina, My dear girl! You really do need to come and visit me so I can take you out hiking, ice skating, etc...I am not like Ms. athletic but it does appear that get out a bit more than you do! I guess you could start with a little hiking and some sledding just watch out for the trees at the bottom of the hill when you go sledding! Be sure and keep me posted on your adventures. LOL
