This Notice was by the River as I walked down to the Bottom at Simatai Great wall of China.

I thought this was another slide down the Mountain and thought I would be brave enough to 'have a go'. To my horror it turned out to be a rope you hang onto to fly down at a great speed. I walked the track and actually got there about the same time as the others, as getting onto the equipment may have taken some of the time. It claims 5 minutes down to the bottom.
