Story

Jason Stoke asked me to take them up to Battle Creek Falls so they could rappel down the waterfall. We set up a couple of fixed lines from the bolted anchors, and everyone had a chance to rappel down next to the waterfall a few times before it got dark. Cooper was very patient while he waited for his turn, and then when we went down at the end, he had a lot of fun.
