Rec climbing a 250ft stick

[MarkH]

We just had Canada day here and a few of my Canadian colleagues had been eyeing up this tree for a while, they thought it was the perfect opportunity to go climb it seeing as we had a long weekend. Thought I'd share it and hopefully it'll entertain some people!

 

 

 

Also I just want to mention one topic that will no doubt get brought up on this thread. Helmets are hugely important for any kind of climbing activity - sadly there was some confusion during gear packing and mine got left behind, however, I couldn't miss the opportunity to climb this tree, so I went without. Which was a shame but we just took extra care and lots of communication about peoples actions in the tree. Right, point over! Wear lids!

Good Times indeed! What a fantastic view of the Beach from the top. the timber on the shore looks like little sticks. nice little clip of the rope wrench on the way down. Good entertainment!

Thanks for the feedback all, been watching other peoples videos for ages and decided to get stuck in too! Sadly didn't have enough rope to setup a flatters/silkyfox zip line out of this tree though

True, but we dont have amazing trees of that size, so i'll call it even
