October 4, 2008: Fun product testing pix - and video too!
Bretton Woods General Manager Chris Ellms was joined by Director of Activities & Events Sean Doll for some more super-fun product testing on the longest zip line in the Bretton Woods Canopy Tour. To begin, Chris and Sean are instructed in the proper way to "jug" up the tree to the first platform using work harnesses and equipment. Once there, they were able to ride the zip line taking them from the treetops above Rosebrook Canyon across to the western slopes near the Darby's Drop trail. What a ride!!
Check out the video footage taken as Chris and Sean, as well as Reid and Charmaine from Bonsai Designs, take a ride on the Big Daddy!
