Here: Home » Posts » Niagara, the return Gosh Confluence has been mighty popular. The story has been Dugg, Fazed, Reddited, Metafiltered, blogged, probed and dissected. The thread on 28days has been viewed 130,000 times. The writeup on sleepycity has been viewed almost 50,000 times. Sheesh I think TPC is blushing, she thought nobody cared.
This attention weighed heavily on my mind as
twinky-z and I blasted across the Nevada desert in the middle of the night, discussing the possibility of a sequel. Brisbane explorer, 1337 programmer and all round wanker twinky-z has ventured deep into Niagara previously, but not into the tailrace tunnels. It has haunted him since.
By the passing lights of the roadtrains and the intermittent streetlamps, the details of a return trip were hastily sketched. We shot out messages to those souls keen enough to attend on short notice and I bartered with the local store for the required SRT gear. The affirmative replies from our cohorts swept in and northward we traveled towards Niagara.
An interesting note, or a Fly On The Wall (in caveclan terms) if you will; the catchphrase of the trip was Balls Deep In Niagara, on account of the water being so cold none ventured further into the Confluence lake than that. Except Nel. She's hardcore and showed up us all!
Those attending our delightful jaunt were:
