I'm alive!

Yes, I survived my first skydive! The freefall was absolutely amazing once I got used to it. First few seconds were like "OMFG, what the hell am I doing up here?". Got over that real quick and it was just a blast. Will try to post pictures soon, have a video as well and will try to figure out a way to upload that.

Tomorrow is the Tongariro (aka Mt. Doom) crossing. 6-8hr hike depending on conditions and the speed of the group. I'm starting to worry that surviving the crossing might be more of a challenge than the skydiving...
