Does it start at 30:45?  Have you done that bungee jump (or is it only for TV stars)?  😜

Yup, that's the start of the road.   I haven't done any bungy jumps, I'm not too good with heights 🙂 There are a number of jumping options around here, this is the old bungy jump spot they've moved it to a new spot as that one is just so difficult to get to with the crazy access road, it's scary enough being in a car going across that bridge for me.

Look at that beautiful gold catching bedrock, facing the right way to suck up the gold too.  It's like that all along the creek.

Some old workings in there.

Was a bit of a climb down to the creek.

The roads that little green line of plants along the cliff.

Looking out the window at the straight drop.

Crossing the bridge they used to do bungy off before moving it, It's a very old bridge from the Gold Rush days.  I don't trust it 🙂
