CAS element: Action
Time: 4 hour
After almost a week of skiing in the Aples at Argentiere, I was quit tired and I wanted to try something else before I leave the pure mountains and become again an intoxicated city dweller. Therefore on the last day I went with friends waterfall ice climbing. The walk that brought us to the waterfalls was perilous and almost made me regret to have signed up for the activity. However when we finally reached our destination the curtain of ice laid in front of me made me forget all the effort to get here. The rest of the day was just great. We were first informed of all the security precautions and then each led through a ice wall, first small ones then gradually bigger. This sport requires a lot of strength in the arms and legs and more importantly extreme concentration. I loved it and I wonder why I have not tried it sooner.
