    • I actually made another version of this that's more of a news package...in that one I explain exactly what the students are taught...they are taught how to climb as well as how to care for and maintain the trees. There are no prerequisites so it's open to all students.

    • I don't think the music the whole time was necessary. I would have liked more info about the class. Is there only one, or is it a series. What do you learn (belaying, rappelling, safety, equipment, etc)? Do you teach tree maintenance or just climbing? I liked it, but I thought it was too short and needed more info.
