Hello guys out there. I happened to venture over that that "other" tree site and came across this post and was curious if there would be anyone willing to help. It seems like this guy is pretty passionate about trees and it seems like he'd really like to climb and his wife wants to help make it happen. The gentleman has only one leg so here's the post.
Hi there --
My husband has a degree in forest management and was a tree climber at a landscape company until he lost his leg to the pelvis, in a motorcycle accident 2 years ago. He dreams about climbing again, whether or not he ever does it professionally.
I'd love to pay for an expert instructor to brainstorm with him, and help him figure out what rigging he could use, and how to modify techniques to make it possible for him to do again... His arms and right leg are very strong.
His birthday is in 10 days. Anybody have any ideas how I could set this up so I could surprise him with an afternoon with an expert? We live in the Boston area.
Thanks, Reban
