Group intends to RAPPEL! Some might notice this insistent statement when in receipt of this right of passage into the gates of this sacred landscape. I am humbled to live near a place where inverse stone walls made of our own world's history protect and contain their unyielding enchantment, to allow the fierce from within to run free — as most of the world watches from above.

Some places are so remote they are not announced. What is in a name given to a destination? A question only you can answer. To even visit such places is an honor. Allow yourself to color your surroundings with amazement and wonder. Allow yourself to accept the challenges ahead. Be inspired to question what's further. And be curious within your own fierce presence. Your relationship with the world around you is up to you — and this is a journey you are privileged to write about.
