The Experience

“Wait, are we really doing this?” I asked, half-laughing as our off-road van bounced along a muddy track just outside Denali. The driver—can’t remember his name, but he had that easy Alaskan grin—just nodded and cranked up the radio. Even before we clipped in, you could smell spruce needles in the air, sharp and cold. Our guide, Sarah, handed out helmets and told us about her first time zipping here (she screamed so loud a raven answered back). That made me feel better somehow.

The first sky bridge was wobbly—my hands were sweating so much I almost dropped my gloves. But Sarah kept talking about how the forest changes every week; she pointed out these tiny red berries underfoot (I think she called them bearberries?) and said moose sometimes wander right beneath the cables. By the third zipline, I stopped thinking about my grip and just let myself look down—patches of sunlight flickered through the trees, and there was this weird silence except for our harnesses clicking on metal. It’s hard to explain but it felt like floating over a painting.

I didn’t expect to get competitive at the end, but when they set us up for that dual racer finale… well, let’s just say my friend still claims she won by half a second. My arms were shaking from adrenaline or maybe just relief. We all kind of stood around laughing at ourselves while Sarah snapped photos—my hair sticking out everywhere under the helmet. Heading back in the van, someone passed around trail mix that tasted mostly like peanuts but honestly everything does after you’ve been outside for hours. I keep replaying that view from above the treetops in my head—you know when you can’t quite believe you did something until later?
