Staring into the Abyss

 Hullo stuffie pals, today we are going on an epic adventure. We are searching for... The Abyss. Yes... there really is such a place...

Here we are... do you see that big crack... it is The Abyss...

Oooh... ahhh... can you see how deep it is??

Oh... well... that doesn't look beary deep does it? And we heard that several dogs have had to be rescued from the Abyss this past winter and... well... this Abyss could maybe eat a mouse but definitely not a dog!

Oh... but if we track that split farther... we come to this... oohhh...

... AAHHHH!!!! Oh wow....

OK, that is a seriously deep split in the rock...

Rumour has it that it is 30 metres deep in places... We debated tying one of us to a rope with a GoPro but... we had neither rope nor GoPro sooo... that will have to wait until another time!

It doesn't look too bad from this angle but...

But from this angle... yikes! Sooo... when dogs fall down The Abyss, the fire department comes and they send a guy down there (on a rope) to get the dog. It gets really narrow in spots so it must be a pretty slim firefighter!

No one's really sure what caused The Abyss... possibly an earthquake or maybe collapsed mine tunnels below...

But farther along... Even a stuffie can span The Abyss!

Nobody sneeze...

And here... you can see that this area forms an escarpment with a really steep drop-off down there...

Wow... alright... onwards...
