USE EXTREME CARE WHEN SELECTING YOUR ZIPLINE COURSE!
• Select a location where the whole course can be easily supervised
• Attachment trees MUST be healthy and at least 38 In. (97 Cm) in circumference or 12 In. (31 Cm) in
diameter. Use tape measure to check this.
Note: Measure the trees at least 6 Ft. from the ground.
• Never attach to a tree showing excessive decay, cracks, exposed roots, disease, excessive lean,
damage from weather or poor tree architecture. Select trees in stable, non-saturated soils (not in areas
with eroding soils or in a wet area of the yard). Do not select trees in an area that has recently been
cleared.
• If you are unsure of your trees’ health, contact an arborist and have them asses your trees’ health and
suitability.
