I am in Waterville Maine for school. Does anybody have good places to go for bridge or cliff jumping, or even anywhere with good rope swings around where I am?

I know of two that are pretty sick but they're at least an hour away from you, so I wont waste my time now describing location and such, if you want them reply back and then I'll waste my time.

there is salmon falls in buxton, where there are rope swings, small cliffs, a small bridge and a larger bridge, but everyone knows about that. and there is fry's leap on lake sabago, where there are a variety of heights you can jump off from 10 ft to 70ft.

Salmon Falls is close to Portland if you are going to be in that area. If you are heading West you can hit up Fryes Leap on Sebago Lake. PM me if you want directions!
