The ropes course was very unpleasant because it was scary. Before the ropes course I had to put on a harness and a helmet. For most of the course I was five feet off the ground. First I walked up a ladder, which lead to a tight rope of some sorts, a bridge with two strings that would move around, a tree branch that I walk along, and then I walked across wooden blocks hanging from a string and they would always move around. That part was difficult because I had to stay on the right of the blocks unless I  would  have gotten stuck in the rope. In the end it was scary because I got stuck in the rope and my helmet was choking me. The ladder was also very scary because it  would tip over and I had to balance myself on it. There were spotters standing on each side of me  in case I started to tip they would push me back up on the ladder. The ladder tipped over three times which means I fell of that ladder three times, I was fearful . At one point I was hanging on the back of the ladder I was trying to get off but my foot was stuck! All of these events made the ropes course a bad experience for me!  The ropes course was unpleasant because it was scary.
