A part of the 190 foot outcrop, King and Queen Seat, in Rocks State Park in Maryland, USA. Beautiful fall day with bright colors and fresh air made it a wonderful adventure. Bravely a group of people walked along the rocks and looked over the edge. There was relatively no wind, so the worry of any of them falling was slightly decreased, but I still had bets with who would fall off first ;-) Fortunately no one ended up winning the bet and no one was hurt. But a small bit of advice to anyone who dares to climb the King and Queen Seat rocks... don't put hands in dark crevices (snakes love it here) and don't walk to the edge, it's just playing with disaster. Also, although everything went well, I would advise against bringing a group of 30 young kids to a rocky outcrop with a 200 foot straight down :-)
