      Just sleep in a large dog cage with a key strapped to your neck and a padlock holding it shut.

    That awkward moment when your pillow falls of the side of your portaledge and you cant get to sleep.

    why would anyone walking around on a perfectly flat surface with DIRT AND EARTH under them, choose to sleep hanging from a rock?

    That moment when you want to do that but you remember you roll in your sleep and you'll most likely roll off the ledge....MAN I WANNA DO THAT 😭

    It's pretty easy to set up. Takes a couple practice runs on the ground to get it worked out though. Only takes a couple minutes if you're on a good ledge. Sleeps one person super comfortable. Two people is tight. Gear has to be hanging outside but it works.

  • @mike67mike
    @mike67mike  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Absolutely. I don't untie from the rope the whole time. I just have some slack in it so I can get in my sleeping bag and move around unrestricted.

    On my 7th grade class trip, we went to a camp. On Day 3 out of 5, we went on a zipline about 120 feet in the air. In order to get to it, you have to climb a huge rock. (I'm not bullshitting you when i say this, but they didn't give us a harness. We signed a fucking WHAVER instead. At about 40 feet high, i slipped and fell off. I almost killed my girlfriend by almost landing on her. I ended up breaking my left leg and my right hand. It was the most painful thing ever!!
