In-The-Trees

I ended my last blog stating that I would talk about an in-the-trees experience. So this is my experience. I went to a place called WildPlay TreeZone (here is the website: http://www.wildplayparks.com/elements/tree_course/treego_fullcourse.html) with my former employer, and the other 3 people I worked with. TreeZone is an obstacle course up in the trees. There are 4 levels: green, blue, red and black. As the levels progress, the obstacles become more difficult, and you get higher in the trees. Now let it be known that you are clipped into the obstacles with 2 big clips, and you also have the equipment to use a zipline. I must say it is crazy! Especially for someone who is afraid of heights (like myself!!). I mean we were so high up in the trees that you could feel and see them moving with the wind. AGH! :)

The obstacles were quite difficult in some cases, because you quite literally have to just let yourself go. Like on the zip lines that are in the higher parts of the trees, as well as the swings where you are clipped in from above, but there is nothing underneath you, scary! There was one fun obstacle that you got to do a tarzan swing into a big rope spiderweb.

It was truly a hair raising experience, and I must say, that I thought of my father the whole time, because he is an adrenalyn junkie like I am!
