Awesome Patrick! Mind me asking how you set your line (big shot)? Also, how did you confirm it was a good one? Was pretty high up, looked hard to see. Thanks for sharing!
Hey @brit. Yes, I used the big shot to get the line in the taller tree. It was about 60 feet up - the go pro lens always makes it look taller. There were so many branches in the way I had to shoot twice to be sure it was on a limb that I felt comfortable with. To be sure there won't be an unexpected drop as I'm climbing I always do a bounce check when I'm a couple feet off the ground. In this case it was a good thing I did because the line was over a smaller branch above the limb I wanted and when I bounced the smaller limb broke and the line settled into the spot I wanted.
