Monkeying Around #16: Lakeside Climb
While walking along the beach, I spotted a tree that looked climbable. Naturally, I had to check it out.
Turns out—it is climbable. But don’t let that fool you… This one’s tougher than it looks. Whether it’s the awkward angles, the shifting footing, or the subtle sway of the lakeside breeze, this climb isn’t for the weak.
You are looking for a red bison tube hanging around 25ft up in a deciduous tree. No tools required, just some good climbing skills.
Monkeying Around: a growing series of tree climbs (and the occasional climb that isn’t a tree) scattered throughout Mississauga!
There weren’t nearly enough chances to climb around here, so I thought: why not start a series that changes that? Whether you're scaling trunks or hanging from something unexpected, this series is for those who enjoy the vertical side of geocaching.
Some caches will be easy climbs, others more challenging. Some are high, some are low, and a few might make you question your life choices - but all of them require a little Monkeying Around.
Climb safe, know your limits, bring a friend or that one handy tool when needed, and most of all, have fun up there!
Good Luck!
