    Awesome video gmcttr. I haven't seen that one. It makes tree climbing look exciting to the non tree climbers, haha. You might like the following picture too. A forum member by the name of "Moss" on treebuzz has been a treecamper long before me. When I showed off my video in the treebuzz forum he replied with this picture:

    Cool. Is that a tree boat or something else?

    I look around some on treebuzz and masterblasterhome.com. Do you use the same username? Nevermind, found you on treebuzz. I do on treebuzz (but don't think I've posted) and on masterblaster, they changed it to GemCutter without asking.

I was certainly ready for a rest by the time I was able to lay down in the hammock. Thanks again Refreshing.

    Refreshing,

    The gig is up. It didn't take you anywhere near 10 minutes to run around "the dragon". I clocked you at 7 minutes, 54 seconds. No more exaggerating please. Geesh.

    Enjoy your videos. I always end up laughing out loud and my wife looks at me like I'm the one that's nuts.

    All the best. Can't wait to see you conquer the Redwoods.

    Great stuff as always. The tarp has been a major sticking point for my attempts. I am not sure if ur tarp sock would work well with my gathered end setup.

    There's a species de-evolving joke in here somewhere.
