I was once at Glacier Point at Yosemite at dawn. That was about 1,000 feet down the side of a granite wall. I got about 20 feet from the edge and it made me sick. That was natures way of proving I wasn’t stupid. I saw people sitting on the rocks that jutted out from the wall.
I guess I have enough excitement in my life. LOL
Just reading your post causes me anxiety...I learned I was cliff averse when I was 16 on a family vacation in the Canadian Rockies.
The Colonel’s Wife has no trouble going near the edge. I get so anxious for her that I have to look the other way. She thinks I’m being silly. I think a strong breeze could send her over.
