Post Good start :)
I hope everyone and your families have a safe and happy new year! For me it started off great already. I woke up early this morning feeling surprisingly good. After some breakfast, I decided it was time to go burn off a few of those adult beverages I may or may not have had too many of. :mrgreen: Got a good limb cinched at about 75-80 foot with the help of my awesome pneumatic line launcher on a nice White Oak in my backyard. Setup my rope walker and ran up to the tip. Sat around and caught my breath, eased down and decided to do it again and man I love that burn you get from just about every muscle you use. Safe climbing guys :)

Nice going! I failed to get into a tree yesterday or today. Worked today to try to get ahead on my upcoming week, finally jumped on my bike at sunset and went looking for a tree. Looked at some nice trees, didn't climb unfortunately.

Good to hear from you Minty, I've been following your adventures here and there on facebook. Eucalyptus regans! I'm jealous, have some great climbs!
