This deserved to get revived so...

At my bachelor party camping trip (don't worry, nothing scandalous) we went to Summersville Lake, WV, as they have some awesome climbing there. At one point we were doing a scavenger hunt that involved jumping off some cliffs and swimming to shore. The cliff we were standing at was 60-70 feet high and had a giant log floating right underneath it. So I walked a little ways further and found a shorter cliff with a better landing area. I didn't realize at the time however, that this meant I had to swim much further to get back to the place we were going. If it wasn't for one of my friends throwing me one of those pool noodles I would have needed to get rescued I think. Definitely a good time...except for the whole 'thinking I was going to die' part.
