Anxiety


As one who suffers from a bit of acrophobia, unroped, fifth-class moves over 500 feet of air make me somewhat nervous.  But watching my daughter make those same moves causes serious anxiety.  Yesterday, when we wanted to hike in a certain canyon, but could find no way down, we ended up sliding off the end of the rock pyramid pictured above.  We had a good hike, but I couldn't enjoy it because I was so worried about getting out of there.  In the event, EDO scampered to the top without any hesitation, but I was a nervous wreck until we were well away from the edge.
