From the Paper:

"As the sun was rising on the morning of the fifth day, I found myself biting my lip, while the intensity of that day's events fogged up my mind. Climbing Table Rock was becoming a reality, and I was doing everything I could to avoid thinking about it. I've always considered myself somewhat of a thrill-seeker, and my lifelong fear of heights had never failed to create a worthwhile thrill. But this climbing experience would be one that I would never forget."
