Zip Line Time: Hang On!

We got into the wrong van but only went 10 feet until we figured it out.  Then a 35 minute drive out to the lines.  The harnesses were tight in all the wrong places.  There was a good deal of hiking and climbing in between zip lines.  We only had one camelback that held 1.5 liters and between us we drank it all.  There were 10 lines one of which was the longest in Costa Rica at just over 3/4 of a mile long.  Here is one link to my zipline ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6b9DhVZR8I )


Hike and climb 
First big platform is very sturdy
Next platform is slightly less beefy
View from on top.  Each successive platform was less sturdy and the final two didnt even have railings. 
This platform was so precarious thst you had to grab the hand of the guide to evev get into position.   Needless to say I did not take any pictures of these!
