A series of knots are tied and you are then ready to climb. But your journey has just started. When you get to your first branch you place your rope over a higher branch. Climbing is a process that takes skill, patience, energy, and a certain amount of courage. But the rewards and peace found high in a tree top will well compensate your efforts.
Tree climbing is similar to the martial arts in that there are different levels of training.
You will learn a number of different skills before passing on to the next level. These skills are tested in a climbing and written exam. Levels of training are identified by colored arm bands. You might have heard of tree climbing or possibly participated in an introductory climb and are now sufficiently intrigued to climb to a new level. Here you can climb with an instructor and begin exploring the canopy.
