No problem...you read the directions...I'll wait right here on this ledge.... |

Hmmmmm lets see what the directions say to do :-)!! On the Rap route down the Arches |

Then we ended up here. I can't remember what we did after that. I know we solo'd some of the ledges and made maybe two more raps.
I just remember being very thirsty and drinking from the runoff that was coming down the wall. Wow that tasted good |
