Nice shot. I doubt I'd want to get that close to it. Slippery footing. Well, evidentially tourists are climbing around on rock in Yosemite in sandals. People used to know that hiking boots are good for that. I guess they are thinking these locations are some type of amusement park where everything has been made safe for them, not nature. I can't figure it out, personally.
Unless sitting at a computer too much makes people forget that reality can be dangerous. Marnie the almost akaless In a message dated 8/30/2011 5:58:19 P.M.

The roar, wind, and spray from the falls has to be experienced to be believed, and one would think they would discourage any sort of gymnastics.
