Chli Schlieren August 1998

Chli Schlieren was one of the highlights from my canyoningsummer of 1998. We were with a group of six friends, from which three came to late and got a speeding ticket on the way to Schlieren. Schlieren is a small town, 15 minutes from Luzern, and has one of the most crazy canyons from Switzerland to offer. Renowned because of it extreme slides, and his many jumps. Not to be done during bad wetter!

Same rappel different angle.
  

The second longest slide chli schlieren has to offer. Famous in the media because in the summer of '98 A.H. broke het back during this slide.
