Most of these shots can speak for themselves:
We walked past the security fences and the views we got were so worth it. However there were some risks e.g.:



You'd think someone would've helped me up instead of just snapping pictures... c'est la vie.



This next one is still the path along the edge of the Cliffs, despite looking like a Star Trek planet (or Southern Utah, same diff).


Of course, if you're in a rare geological phenomenon with loads of shale what do you do? Build an alter! (someone else actually built this one, but still...)

Here's an example of a spectacular site you can't see unless you go along the winding path:
At the end of our 5+ km hike we were rewards we this abandoned tower
And we had it all to ourselves until another couple came to take our picture!
Below the projecting promontory that housed the tower, we found a path down between two rocks that lead to some pretty great views at the edge of the islands stretching into the Atlantic. Nicole calls this one the "Lightning Rock"
We rested and ate and played a bit and then prepared for the trip back!
Fortunately, Nicole found a four-legged friend to hitch a ride back. Unfortunately, we couldn't find our apple and so he wouldn't take us :(

In the end we were tired, thirsty, and very, very sunburnt. It was more than worth it.
SO cool! Just looking at those pictures gives me Vertigo O.O
