Georgia Tree Canopy Turns into a Highwire Act
The third leg of the mid-air tour was to be done on a high wire — a single wire traversing 60-80 feet of open air. Oh, we had side wires to hold on to and we did for dear life. But it turned out to be something we just stepped out and did, although quite carefully.
You might notice that I’m actually smiling as I walked toward the camera! All in all, it was a real rush. Very fun and something we’d all do again. And it’s an adventure I’d highly recommend for a family or group of friends to enjoy together.
Don’t let this high wire thing scare you. It’s really easy — you just take it slow. And remember, nothing we did on this tree canopy tour was done without safety harnesses being attached to an overhead wire at all times. Nobody tripped. Nobody fell. But no one would have fallen because of the two safety ropes from our harnesses to the overhead line. That kind of security gives you the guts to do most anything! By the way, here’s a picture of the all-important carabiner that held everything together for us.
It was big and strong and all our safety ropes and harness were attached to one of these!
