“Air Jon”
July 25, 2008
Yup, this is Jon…jumping down Ubehebe Crater in Death Valley. Quite possibly the WORST idea ever. Don’t let Jon’s happy face deceive you. Sure, the trek down was a rather relaxing 5 minute jog/leap, but the 50 minutes spent trying to get up this darn thing was my closest to a near death experience while in death valley. For every step we took, it felt like we sunk 2 steps. The loose rubble you see on the ground was irritating to walk on because, well, it was loose. Loose rock on a steep slope = not a good idea. I’m amazed we actually got out of the dumb thing…
