I emailed the link to my mom and tht was the first thing she said, "Those walls aren't high enough to keep someone from jumping." I explained to her the 99.9% of the canyon is unprotected and that if you wanted to off yourself by jumping there is noone or nothing to stop you.desertrat said:
We were there this past summer. While a group of us was standing around listening to a park ranger tell us some stories of the canyon, someone shreeked when she noticed three young punks scaling down the face of cliff to get to a ledge below. The ranger looked over at them, winced, and turned back around and said, "This is America. I cannot save them from their own stupidity. I have no authority to tell them to stop. All I can do is call in a recovery team if one of them should go over." Then he went on with the rest of his story.desertrat said:

Yet at Calvert Cliffs you are forbidden to go in the water or up the cliffs. Too dangerous.kwillia said:We were there this past summer.

...and they report that the glass floor creaks when you walk on it...Charles said:
The cliffs do crumble and a teacher did die many years ago at the Lusby State Park section, so that does make sence..afterall, the entire cliff is clay. But forbidden to go into the water?? Why?desertrat said:Yet at Calvert Cliffs you are forbidden to go in the water or up the cliffs. Too dangerous.
