Arroyo Seco, July 29th 2006

Moments after this photo was taken Ma went sideways and, from my vantage point, appeared to slam her head into the rock.  Luckily it was just her back and knees that were dinged.  The main waterfall is to the lower right, out of the picture.  When Willy and I were helping Ma and Pa climb up this area I donated my back as a stool while Willy pulled from above.  Ma wasn't too bad but when Pa put his entire weight on my lower back, with one foot, including dynamic effects, my legs almost buckled.  My back was so sore I spent the next two days either standing or lying flat.
