abseiling
The daunting walls, with your hands sweating, your stomach churning, adrenaline coursing through your veins. This is the pinnacle of mental games. Stepping backwards, you’re slowly leaning back into the vast emptiness, and suddenly the sunlight pierces through your eyes, buckets of wind roams between your clothes and your body. Welcome to the beginning of the seil into the wind.
This is a beginner abseiling trip to Malaita Wall. There’re 5 pitches, with the longest cliff sitting at 45m. Pls visit the trip report for details.
