| Report | Sunday was a day too nice to stay indoors. After last minute planning on Saturday night, we met up at Japes just after noon, quickly grabbed gear, and then drove upstream on Fall Creek to our climbing site. Everyone had rock climbed before, but three of our group were new to tree climbing. Matt demonstrated doubled rope technique while Don and Jen set up a platform 65 feet up a towering sycamore. Everyone took turns heading up to chill in the tree-boat (which holds 3 comfortably), while separately clipped into a safety anchor. We returned to Japes at about 5 p.m. |
