Ropes course – this was waaaaaaay harder than I expected. I expected something like a children’s playground but for adults, but this thing tests your balance, core strength, arm strength, flexibility… it was exhausting. My 77 year old father lasted for the first 4 obstacles but then asked to quit so they lowered him down and took him back to the cabin. My sister lasted another 3 more segments until she quit but she waited by the big zip at the end. I made it to the end but needed an ibuprofen to sleep that night due to all the pain and I lift weights 3 times a week and bicycle for 2 other days. I thought I was in good shape until I did this ropes course. The tour guide however made it look effortless as she sauntered across the course behind us, Ricca was a great guide and she helped and guided us the whole way. I wouldn’t try this again unless I was in the mood for some self torture, but the adventurous folks can give it a shot.
