Bigger and Better

Twenty-one feet tall... obviously not tall enough. Besides, the main posts were getting a little wobbly, so it was time for a change. The old zipline needed replaced...

Now towering 34 feet above the ground, the new tripod zipline spans more than 300 feet.

In construction

taylor, thanks for the footage and the video was a nice touch. Your towering structure is impressive. Is there any way you can post the video when your mom "takes the plunge?"

Barbaric. The construction is ingenious. What I wouldn’t give to try that beast.

Wow. The landing looks harsh. I tried a zipline at Shosone Base camp. It was fun- after you took the death plunge...
Ziplining into water is such a great idea~!!
