I asked the same thing. Charley was standing in the parking lot when he took that photo. I guess there is a slight lip up and then over the top of that they drop down to the lake. It took those girls several hours to get the gear that Charley could have retrieved in 5 minutes. They were nice and didn't charge my son for their services so that's cool. It did kill most of the day though. I wish I was on that ride.

After riding all night, through Las Vegas and across the border into northern Arizona. Lake Mead in the background. Charley seems to have a knack for setting up his GoPro camera to take some cool photos.

THAT .... is an AWESOME SHOT! He should have that one framed!

+1 on that! That is magazine quality!

I reckon Ferret's question stands. If he wasn't allowed to climb down see [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=6473&pid=99525#pid99525]here to get his gear, how come he's looking up at the climbing rangers?
By the way, the final photo in post #34 and the photo in post #43 are fantastic. Thumbs Up

Asking myself the same question, I came to the answer, the `climb-down' was at the other side of this climp-up.
