Purple horizon

Went to HRC today.. but a miserable turnout of 13 squaddies was totally agonizing. 6 boys includes guofeng, hanqian, wenjie, kahhore, wanglie and me. and guess wad, i got stuck with a forest. -.-'

For those of you who are wondering what exactly HRC is, it stands for High Rope Obstacles! I shall list out the programme list awaiting us at pulau ubin..

PP

This is a challenging game where a large log is set vertically in the ground and you are suppose to climb up using the rungs at the side. When the climber reaches the top, he is suppose to stand up on the flat side of the log. Harder said than done, with the log trembling all the time, and no space to manoeuvre about. After that, we are suppose to leap off from the log onto a hanging rack (you know, those that acrobats use for performance? abit like clothes rack) and from there let go and be lowered down to ground level. One of the best activity, I must say =D

DD

A game where 6 thick logs set parallel to the ground forms a rung of sorts in the air. This game supposedly tests teamwork as climbers scale the logs from the lowest log to the highest log. The only challenging part about this is that the difference in gap between each log increases upwards and for those with short legs and minimal arm power... ^^'

T

A tunnel game where we are suppose to climb through a tunnel set in the ground. Because of the rain, everyone who went through this got their shoes soaked, not to mention that the tunnel got extremely muddy and slippery from the number of people who went through.
..
and I still don't understand why a tunnel is part of HRC course lol.

FF

Flying Fox! Probably one of the best station in the whole set of games. This is the highest flying fox in the whole of Singapore, with the starting point set at 21 meters from the ground, and the whole duration of the glide approximately 150 meters. When waiting for your turn, you sit on the edge of the 21st storey and recieve a magnificant lookout... of the ground below you. Not to forget that you have to drop off the edge to start the flying fox going too.
P.S The guide told us to advertise this game to you folks out there.

ARC

A rope obstacle around 15 meters from the ground, saps the strength out of the climbers, but otherwise pretty easy to complete. Nothing much here =)

So, thats about all there is to the HRC. Some screams here and there from our squaddies (all girls) when they accidentally fell, but otherwise nothing major occured. Im beat out and tired now gotta grab some sleep soon.
