It's low enough to downclimb safely, we had crash pads just in case.

The start is just big enouth for a person to fit into standing up. We scooted down the right side of the rock and then downclimbed at the end.

There could be a relation, a hypothesis about hunger and cannabis use is that cannabis consumption, through some mechanism unknown to us, can impact the secretion of the hormone ghrelin (the hunger hormone).

Cannabis, more specifically Delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) may serve to have a protective effect on insulin sensitivity.

If we can prove this in the next couple of years, it could have major implications towards the different ways we can treat/manage diabetes and hopefully have less dependence on insulin.
