TreeGo


For 3 hours this afternoon, we tried out the brand new TreeGo course at Mactaquac Provincial Park.

After a brief introduction to the basic equipment (we each had a waist and leg harness including 2 regular carabiners attached to a foot and a half of rope each + 1 zip-line attachment) and safety procedures, we were set loose on the obstacle course.

There were actually four separate courses which increased in difficulty as we advanced. The variety of obstacles kept it a lot of fun; we experienced swinging logs, rope bridges, crawled through tunnels, swung on "Tarzan ropes", tight-rope walked, and (our favourite) zip-lined, all at up to 70 feet above the forest floor.



The highlight of the course was probably the long zip-line that spanned a section of the boat marina, below.
